I also archive many playlists with some code I wrote but I don't use a GUI.

My focus is on error handling and trying to differentiate between unrecoverable errors and recoverable ones (try different proxy) but there's still a lot of work to be done.

Wow, I love the "daily tabs" concept. I'll install this and give it a go. Thanks!

"The use-case of tabs are websites that you know are going to change: subreddits, games, or tools that you want to use for a few minutes daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly."
