I've recently gotten on board with Invidous/Viewtube - and they're both great in their own ways. I like not having the algorithm hide or force new content down my throat, but I'm wondering if there's a way to take this to the next level.
I also subscribe to nebula - and have some patreon exclusive videos. It would be amazing to gather them all together in one location - is there some self-hosted option for this? Maybe some combination of yt-dlp + plex/jellyfin?

Self-hosted YouTube frontend with some additional features
I've been running Viewtube in my homelab for my family after the actual YouTube started misbehaving. Was it because I use Firefox? DNS adblock? Unlock origin? Who knows!
I absolutely love that with Viewtube I can make the front page only my subscriptions. It seems to be relatively low on resource usage as well.
But lately, the lack of features is starting to get to me - namely closed captions and "Add to queue".
Are there any other self hosted options that are more feature rich in this regard?

I've been quite happy with my Steam Deck - both as a gaming console and as a secondary computer when it's docked, but for newer titles I picked up a Rog Zephyrus M16 (2023) last year.
Now that Windows is going off the deep end with AI, I'm looking to dual boot/trial Linux on this laptop with the goal to give Microsoft the boot.
It's a beefy laptop:
- 13th Gen i9-13900
- 32GB Memory
- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070
- 1TB NVMe (Windows)
- 2TB NVMe (Linux)
I added the second drive to avoid any issues with dual-booting with Grub/Windows Bootloader - instead making the Linux device the primary boot device and spamming Esc if I want to change to the Windows drive.
For distributions, I'm most familiar with Debian/Ubuntu - it's the daily driver for my work laptop, and the vast majority of my home lab VMs are Ubuntu. With the Steam Deck, I started to get more into Arch with the Steam Deck, and now it's the OS of choice for my HTPCs for simple streaming/Plex media player. I've also messed around with ZorinOS (basically a fancy skinned Ubuntu).
I need some advice on what to throw on this laptop - and some suggestions on how to squeeze the best performance out of this (Optimus vs. Proprietary NVIDIA vs. Open source drivers).
