If you use yt-dlp through tor it will be worse: 403 almost every request. I don’t know if youtube treats tor exit nodes different or it’s because other people also uses that address and generates a strange behavior which youtube flags.

What’s works best for me is using my own residential ip and waiting like an hour between downloads. Throttling doesn’t seem to help.

Regarding how to torify, you can install tor with apt and it will act like a proxy. Then you can use yt-dlp proxy settings

I use it as a daily driver for years now. Just a few things to learn on top of regular linux and you are good to go. Feel free to ask anything.

You are more protected from supply chain attacks but I think it’s not a long term solution

this is how it works. as guard nodes know your ip is better to trust on one of them rather than randomly changing like other nodes. they rotate like in three months iirc

you can configure bios for self power on at certain time and then turn the server off after finishing backup

I’ve just installed and configured it, it’s pretty easy and straightforward. But there are things that should be smoother, for instance I want to run my pipeline on a custom docker image hosted on the same forgejo oci registry and authentication it’s a nightmare

breathtaking

at least he doesn’t have to eat

qubes os is for you. Don’t be scared by it as you can start using it without paying attention to many of its security features like disposables, proxy vms, etc. Just think of it as several vms with a shared clipboard, file sharing mechanism and a convenient apps menu. You can learn later it most advanced stuff

where did you keep it?

that’s great! I believe it would be useful for simple word-matching filters but in the long run LLMs will read it no problem. I would use it if you make it public

please post your updates

congratulations!! greetings from shitjustworks

it should know already that war is pointless

well, mine is real
