Скачать или смотреть The YouTube API sucks

I only really used the YouTube live-streaming API, which I found bad for three reasons:
Usability (forced to use polling)
Quota (10k requests spread over checking if I'm online and reading messages is quite limiting)
Documentation (how dare they close my bugs "won't fix" 🙃)

The code for my bot is here if you're interested: https://github.com/AdamLearns/Abbott (search for "YouTube" if you want to find the YouTube-specific code).

If this video gets way more views than my other videos, then I think it'll be clear that people like negative content, which really doesn't bode well for my future as a content creator. 🤔
