It just so happens I'm right in the middle of trying to change how I watch YouTube at my computer. Despite my best efforts, I find myself getting sucked into shorts, so I'm starting investigate if I can take advantage of YouTube RSS syndication. I recently build yt-dlp and got all the dependencies sorted out, so I can bring videos to my machine locally. I'm also checking out elfeed[0] which is an Emacs based RSS reader, and elfeed-tube[1] which further customizes the elfeed experience for YouTube as well as adding an mpv integration that lets you control video playback directly from Emacs.

In Show HN: Channel Surfer – Watch YouTube like it’s cable TV
My setup might not be exactly what you are looking for, but could be close enough: 1. For Atom/RSS feeds, I use elfeed-org[0]. (including YouTube channels). You can also use elfeed-tube[1] to watch videos on mpv without accessing the website. 2. For spaced-repetition, I also use org-drill[2], this makes it easy to take notes while reading PDFs with pdf-tools[3]. 3. For priority tracking, I use the builtin org-agenda with org-super-agenda[4] to create "views" based on some metadata[5]. This is all done in the same plain text format (org files) and synced in a Git repository.
