I'm not a web developer (or any kind of developer), but I don't
think it uses any javascipt, apologies for my ignorance if that's
not the case. I wanted this to be an 'Invidious' but as a text
buffer for Emacs, without relying on the invidious project.

It has a custom option to use any other media player. I'm just
familiar with mpv.
For example you can use GNU/Emms like so:
```
(setf yeetube-player #'emms-play-url)
```
which you can setup to use vlc.

yt-dlp is not specific to youtube. You can use it download videos
from news sites etc since it accepts any m3u/mpd url
If you are familiar with ffmpeg, it works similarly to this
command (function wise):
```
ffmpeg -protocol_whitelist file,crypto,data,https,tls,tcp -stats
-i <URL.m3u> -codec copy <FILE.mp4>
```
e.g `yeetube-download-videos` just prompts the user to input any
URL they like and downloads them as NAME. It also includes custom
options to export content as audio only format etc.
