Maybe we could set up a bot to post a link to each video as it comes out... A Python script running on one of our computers could do the trick.

  1. Fetch channel's video list using something like yt-dlp every hour
  2. Check videos newer than [script start date] against list of already processed video IDs in a file
  3. Display a prompt: new video found: <title>; post video to [!prague@feddit.org](/c/prague@feddit.org)? [Y/n/watch]
  4. Post using the pythorhead library from a dedicated bot account
  5. Add video ID to file

I totally fancy this idea!
