We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I'm way too distracted when I'm on YouTube but there is a ton of amazing content there. I'm looking for something that could download/sync the videos that I place on a playlist like a private one or even the watch later and then be able to see those videos on something like Plex. There is anything like that available?
Just to be clear, I don't want to download the whole channel, just selective videos that I may find interesting.

Yt-dlp does pretty much everything. It can do a channels playlists, not sure about a custom saved one, but try feeding it a link to it? Then you can just keep re-running it to download any new additions
