I don’t think that there is any value in grabbing all of YouTube, and neither did I suggest doing that. I meant content that specifically interests you, or is likely to interest you (or is otherwise valuable as a historical record). “All videos” means including videos that have next to zero views, sensational clickbait, Elsagate/baby content, and a whole host of other unpleasant things. Most YT archives/hoarders are selective for that reason (and because space, while cheap, is not infinite).

I quite enjoy using NewPipe on Android. Once you build up a list of subscriptions, it’s by far the most peaceful way to consume YouTube on a smartphone.
