Maybe we could set up a bot to post a link to each video as it comes out... A Python script running on one of our computers could do the trick.

Fetch channel's video list using something like yt-dlp every hour
Check videos newer than [script start date] against list of already processed video IDs in a file
Display a prompt: new video found: <title>; post video to [[email protected]](/c/[email protected])? [Y/n/watch]
Post using the pythorhead library from a dedicated bot account
Add video ID to file

I totally fancy this idea!

The title is underselling it. It is the video guide for a Prague visitor.

Unlike on Reddit, you can still edit it!
