Data Hoarder

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.

With everything going on over at YouTube, what is everyone using as their backup solution?

I'm using TubeArchivist to maintain this VERY large collection.

I've been pretty selective, mostly YouTube channels that do 'Tech Documentary Stuff' cause I enjoy re-watching that. LGR would be a prime example.

However, I integrate all of these in my Kodi infrastructure, so only large channels have metadata online in the TVDB or the like.

For those without, I'd love some tips on something to generate Kodi compatible series metadata directly from YouTube.

With TubeArchivist, all the metadata is stored in an ES database and can be queried via API. There's already a Plex and Jellyfin plugin folks are using.

Can you link me on the Jellyfin fork??

Quasi-related - what other tech channels are you following? I like LGR quite a bit. Just found The Serial Port - loving that one, building a dial-up ISP.

Techmoan is great. As is Technology Connections.
