I'd invite you to give it a try yourself, but I have disappointing 
news.  NPM programmes are a nightmare to properly package and we 
currently don't even have npm itself in Guix.

And, oh...  does this depend on Electron to boot?

I have some bad news about that too.

I can't believe this got through my spam filter. :-)

Kind regards,

We do have node, which is what you need to run npm stuff. There is no build system nor importer yet though.

I wonder how this gets into FSF directory when there is no way to
bootstrap that on a free distro.

Guix has the youtube-dl package, you can use that directly to download
the videos and watch them offline.

It hasn't yet:

  ‘No revision has been approved for this page. View the most 
  recent revision.’

I presume that'll be the first objection during review, if 
bootstrapping is at all a concern (and it should be).

‘mpv <https://foo>’ will even call it for you behind the scenes, 
without the download wait.  Actually the only way to still watch 
such videos on less performant machines.

I also use [0] with uBlock Origin in Icecat to make YouTube itself 
almost usable, but none of these approaches address the privacy 
concerns that FreeTube claims to do.

Kind regards,

there's youtube-viewer (also in Guix) I use to watch videos, downloading
them only if desired

we have mps-youtube also
