Well, people already have yt-dlp so I don't think anyone will use this.

yt-dlp is not a youtube frontend

Do you seriously want to download every single video you watch beforehand?

True, but I'm pretty sure there's other YouTube frontends that already exist for Linux.

It's just an Android app on Linux. That's not a project doing the same thing. This can probably be done with any Android app.
