Note on the YouTube API Quota Limitations

⚠️ YouTube API Quota Limitations: This project uses the YouTube Data API which has a daily quota limit of 10,000 units. This is a hard limit that's difficult to increase - have to go through an audit with Google and submit documents, etc.

Will look into alternative approaches to getting video metadata for a channel:

• Individuous API looks promising:https://docs.invidious.io/api/channels_endpoint/
• Check out if yt-dlp can be used...
