Who need GUI to watch youtube? You can watch them directly in terminal with mpv. Try it:
mpv --vo=tct "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ"-
If you're in a kernel VT (i.e. Ctrl+Alt+F[1-7] without starting a graphical environment) MPV can also work in framebuffer mode (the default if you don't specify a video output). It'll show the video fullscreen at full resolution, bypassing the terminal characters.
Who said terminal graphics had to look bad?

you can also use libsixel for that. Contour is a pretty good term that supports that.

What does tct do?
-
It uses the terminal as a display output instead of a separate window

I wondered what this could possibly look like and found some examples here: https://www.baeldung.com/linux/view-media-no-graphical-env.
I was expecting ASCII art. It's low resolution video though. Seems like a small use case, but pretty nifty.
