[Announcement] hold off on rips, yt-dlp will soon require an external javascript dependency #362

Description

@vxbinaca

Per yt-dlp's announcement, ontop of our method of install the user will need to install Deno which is a Javascript runtime used to get better codecs on youtubes (possibly Vimeo/Instagram as well) site extractor only for now. Other deps like FFMPEG are still required for sites like X, Vimeo, Facebook and Twitch as well as others.

Some users and myself have had trouble with uploads using tubeup, getting 403 errors or not the best formats or just outright failure to download. I have investigated hardcoding a fix and none of the ones mentioned in yt-dlps issues are reliable enough to hard code, like changing to the clientID to appleTV doesn't work reliably 100 percent of the time.

When the change is implemented and the yt-dlp team gives guidance on a install method, rest assured I will test and write up a modification to the install guide in README.md and point any questions to the README.

Thank you for your attention on this matter.
