Techno made public a bunch of videos that he had made private last year (including my personal favorite “edgy teenager”) but he also accidentally unprivated a video that was NEVER public, so he “uploaded” a new video that was actually made 7 years ago!!!
I use this docker image to download stuff https://github.com/Jeeaaasus/youtube-dl. Idk what type of power consumption my server uses, it's a Ryzen 3100, 16gb of RAM, T400 for graphics. Has 24TBs. I use it for YouTube backups which downloads from a list of channels I give it along with downloading videos from a specified playlist about once an hour. You can definitely run a YouTube downloader on a less powerful machine, I just recently upgraded my server. I also use it to run Jellyfin and torrenting stuff.

Youtuberr? Want Sonarr like Client for Youtube
I use Jeeaaasus - youtube-dl in Docker, which is working great for me. I have enabled the web UI which enables me to add channels easily. And refreshes all videos every couple of hours. Also you can use all the command line options available in yt-dlp.

Best way to add yt-dlp?
Extremely easy to get it running, though I haven't tried automating. The Youtube-DL container template in the community apps store uses ytp-dl. Here is the repo https://github.com/Jeeaaasus/youtube-dl and the container hub page https://hub.docker.com/r/jeeaaasustest/youtube-dl/

A server - client downloader idea
That probably depends on what you want to download. I use https://github.com/Jeeaaasus/youtube-dl for youtube videos, the ui sucks but it does the job. I wouldn't use a browser extension due to privacy reasons
