Deleted channels

In the 5 years that this archive is running some channels have been snapped from YouTube. They are listed here.

How it really works

Currently there runs a cronjob (every day) which takes all the channels in the database and runs yt-dlp with it. yt-dlp saves the files on disk and adds the info_json of the video to a mongo database. In the long term the goal is to use pubsubhubbub instead of daily polling.

This web frontend is written in flask and connects to the mongo database to easily show all content.

The source code is available here. But be aware, it might be shitty code since I am only a developer by hobby!

There used to be a YouTube playlist which I used to put in individual videos to be archived. But YouTube removed the playlist 2 times for "hate speech"
