a little gui app and the space bar would be enough.

but mpd is a pretty good idea, because it can be combined with an out of the box mpd gui, so you would not be completely on your own… thanks!

how does this compare to snac2 or gotosocial? (are there more like that?)

why is the source code not public?

do you already have monitoring solution for your vps? maybe prometheus/altermanager and the node_exporter?

otherwise i join the forgejo praise, and also enjoy etherpad (self hosted (limited) google doc)

how do you handle backups? recommendation: borg

but then it should be “restricted” at top, and not “corporate”?

i think this is the correct question to ask. did you just create ~/.local/bin folder? you can look at the end of ~/.profile that this will only be added to $PATH if the folder exists.

the easiest way is to log out and log in (no restart necessary!)

otherwise you can also execute source ~/.profile and then yt-dlp should be available.

the chmod +x tip from the other comments could also be necessary!
