How to Download All of Wikipedia onto a USB Flash Drive
Not related to the OP topic or zim but I was looking into archiving my bookmarks and other content like documentation sites and wikis. I'll list some of the things I ended up using.
ArchiveBox[1]: Pretty much a self-hosted wayback machine. It can save websites as plain html, screenshot, text, and some other formats. I have my bookmarks archived in it and have a bookmarklet to easily add new websites to it. If you use the docker-compose you can enable a full-text search backend for an easy search setup.
WebRecorder[2]: A browser extension that creates WACZ archives directly in the browser capturing exactly what content you load. I use it on sites with annoying dynamic content that sites like wayback and ArchiveBox wouldn't be able to copy.
ReplayWeb[3]: An interface to browse archive types like WARC, WACZ, and HAR. The interface is just like browsing through your browser. It can be self-hosted as well for the full offline experience.
browsertrix-crawler[4]: A CLI tool to scrape websites and output to WACZ. Its super easy to run with Docker and I use it to scrape entire blogs and docs for offline use. It uses Chrome to load webpages and has some extra features like custom browser profiles, interactive login, and autoscroll/autoplay. I use the `--generateWACZ` parameter so I can use ReplayWeb to easily browse through the final output.
For bookmark and misc webpage archiving then ArchiveBox should be more than enough. Check out this repo for an amazing list of tools and resources https://github.com/iipc/awesome-web-archiving

ERROR: urlopen error [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed
Notes: I'm not using vpns. I'm using a special version of ytdl designed for niconico. It has not been updated in over a year: https://github.com/animelover1984/youtube-dl

Youtube video analysis with youtube_dl inconsistent, sometimes giving errors
You might get more consistent results with a fork, most of which have already fixed this issue. Some popular ones are yt-dlp/yt-dlp, blackjack4494/youtube-dlc and animelover1984/youtube-dl. Please note though these might not be drop-in replacements

youtube-dl is (possibly) dead
Months before the lawsuit, there were plenty of people complaining that youtube-dl's maintainers closed issues without any reason given. Here is one illuminating example:
https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/23860
And there is also an entire fork that fixes the support for just a single provider, Niconico, because the maintainers ignored its issues.
https://github.com/animelover1984/youtube-dl
A quote from its README:
All code in this project is licensed solely with the condition that any portion of it is not permitted to be used in the main youtube-dl fork, either directly or indirectly. It is also not permitted to be used in any project that contains contributions from either remitamine or dstftw.
It seems that youtube-dl was a dysfunctionally managed project at the time of the lawsuit, and happened to ride out on the good PR for a couple of months, before returning to stagnation once again.
To me it sounds like a plugin system would have prevented centralization and the need for forks, but would have made distribution harder for average users.
