Anyone have a good list of books to store in your own digital library for after all the data on the internet is AI bathwater trash and all the Apple/google/kindle ebooks are neutered and rewritten?

Similarly, anyone have a good method for ripping content off of YouTube?

We actually have tools for storing books on Nostr relays and then downloading them to your e-reader (including e-paper readers), on the fly.

Newpipe works great for saving YouTube video or audio only for offline use.

Kiwix is a pretty convenient option for storing offline reference material.

Maybe just keep a log of things you google and find books that fill the need.

For YouTube check out yt-dlp. It can liberate videos from yt & hundreds of other sites.

Dude, YouTube needs to be wrested from the hands of Google. A vast trove of human knowledge is being buried under brainrot and muckbang videos 🤮

Stacher is a nice GUI for yt-dlp
