      Why not ?
      >With only justification "durr you can pause it"
      The script can take literally 7 days to iterate between all channels or if running at the same time you have 100s of 100s of terminal windows opened.

      And place these 100s of windows in their own workspace. Any questions ?

        It's moronic. A single script can check and download. You can grab all updates at once if you're subscribed anyway.
        You can also make any download tool you use run in the background.
        In the case of youtube and twitter, you can actually use push notifications to download instantly.

            basically, yeah
            most sites have those, some sites have other mechanisms for instant updates
            twitter for example lets you use their streaming API with filters

            even if you don't make something custom for instant downloads (i've caught a bunch of deleted things), you can simply pass gallery-dl or youtube-dl a list of channels and it will check them all one after another

            No the script DOWNLOADS VIDEOS (or pictures)!

            > run in the background.
            Congratulations on no feedback.

            > A single script can check and download
            If it is sequential then it is problematic, you realize this one YT channel can have over 8000 videos quite literally making it do a check on every one of these videos
            >Is this downloaded
            >Yes it is skip; next one
            >Is this downloaded
            >Yes it is skip; next one
            For like 8h no joke.

            So chaining these channels sequentially is a terrible idea.

            Now if you start all the scripts at the same time.... HOLY frick !
            Now every channel and script will starve itself because now every script is downloading a new video from the channel. This can result in literally getting the download canceled and the script will check every one of the 8000 other videos, not giving you the videos until they come the second way around.

            If you do a sleep 13s on the end of the loop or a sleep with a prime number the chance of the scripts starting at the same time is practically not existent and most of the time the scripts will fall into their own rhythm since most of the time they are checking for videos who are already downloaded.

            I like to see how you solve this.

            You're running scripts you mentally moronic baboon. Just open them in tmux, detach it and you're set. No need for an entire fricking VM.

            Oh look the CMD hipster got angry.
            >You're running scripts
            YES because there is no real way to do that (system automation) graphically and even if there is it is slower then writing some script.

            The difference is that you will literally start GUI applications from the CMD because you are a stupid CMD hipster.

            >Just open them in tmux, detach it
            Why? Explain this ? What if I want to shut down the PC ? Will tmux be magic then ?

            Will tmux remember at what position yt-dlp is in this channel ? No ?

            Yeah, you're not doing that with a significant number of channels/twitters because you would get rate limited.
            Even if you were, you can configure it to stop after it sees something it's already downloaded and move to the next one.
            You acted like you would never have an account, but if you did, you can simply look at your subscriptions instead of looking at each channel individually in the first place.
            Lastly, I have about a dozen automation programs going at any time, and hooked the errors up to something that alerts me of failures. A simple webhook would do. I would NEVER monitor them myself.
            I don't know how you made an incredibly simple and common task this moronic.

            > it to stop after it sees something it's already downloaded and move to the next one.
            yt-dlp checks if it is downloaded then it moves to doing the same for the next item.

            Like I explained it takes multiple hours even of checking and no downloading before it finishes everything in the channel.

            >You acted like you would never have an account,
            No this was a different anon I understand how the cancer of web push works.

            The idea of DOWNLOADING this is because videos get purged and removed. You are only a zoomer who wants to see the latest videos of your e-celebs.

            Both youtube-dl and gallery-dl have options to stop after it sees something already downloaded.
            You 100% do not run this setup, because you would constantly get rate limit messages and nothing would complete.

      The original is now unlisted now while being public back in the day.

      >a day looking at pictures/videos.
      And after these pictures are removed you are going to look at new pictures your corporate masters push on you.

      Downloading is having that video forever, unaltered (SURPRISE SOME YT VIDEOS EVEN ADMIT TO RETROACTIVELY CENSORING OR CUTTING AWAY CONTENT IN THEIR OLD VIDEOS)
