Feature requests: proxy, packages, docs, etc

[nobody43]

Hi. Thanks for the software. I have a few nitpicks:

• no explicit proxy support - in some parts of the world it's impossible to watch YT without a bypass
• no ability to choose youtube-dl vs yt-dlp path. renaming manually is a dirty hack
• please publish packages for most popular distros on GH, as it's much more resilient to malicious substitution than personal website. lack of packages significantly reduces adoption base
• an outdated version of packages is available on some distros, maybe mention it in the docs?
• no ability to watch a video by ID is wasted potential
