If you use yt-dlp through tor it will be worse: 403 almost every request. I don't know if youtube treats tor exit nodes different or it's because other people also uses that address and generates a strange behavior which youtube flags.

What's works best for me is using my own residential ip and waiting like an hour between downloads. Throttling doesn't seem to help.

Regarding how to torify, you can install tor with apt and it will act like a proxy. Then you can use yt-dlp proxy settings

I use it as a daily driver for years now. Just a few things to learn on top of regular linux and you are good to go. Feel free to ask anything.

You are more protected from supply chain attacks but I think it's not a long term solution

this is how it works. as guard nodes know your ip is better to trust on one of them rather than randomly changing like other nodes. they rotate like in three months iirc

octo is longer to allow a second diver to breath and allow some freedom of movement near you. both should be able to continue diving with your arms locked. sharing your main would be a lot more uncomfortable. Also the octo is bright yellow to allow a second diver to easily see it and take it maybe without you knowing... no time to explain without air! I don't think padi or ssi teach it differently. In case your octo is broken or unavailable then yes you share your main but it is more like an emergency situation as you should take turns to breath

on What was your first distro? · c/linux · 1 pts · 352d

me too with redhat 5 at my first job. shortly after moved to 6 that, as far as I remember, was the first showing the green OK at the right of every service starting instead of a mess of output

qubes os is for you. Don't be scared by it as you can start using it without paying attention to many of its security features like disposables, proxy vms, etc. Just think of it as several vms with a shared clipboard, file sharing mechanism and a convenient apps menu. You can learn later it most advanced stuff
