--- title: YouTube needs to have an open REST API date: 2021 Sep 29 --- Youtube needs an open Rest API. Here are some reasons:
  1. It makes my life easier, as I don't need to write a billion lines of code, and not go throught the paid service known as google cloud console, to get an api key.
  2. It means that you only need to use fetch() on it.
  3. We don't need the most in depth api.
