Worth noting, yt-dlp doesn't just handle YouTube (as the name and your comment might imply) but basically any multimedia on the web. Another example:

    mpv 'https://www.instagram.com/p/CfZK86fozXa/'
Or

    mpv 'https://twitter.com/thesalaam10/status/1547180911606767616'
And many more sites. Here is the full list of supported websites: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/blob/master/supportedsites....

I use this in combination with https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/send-to-mpv-p... as my pimary way to play video content on the web. It's nice having everything play in a consistent player with consistent controls as well as tons of useful features.
