The sepiasearch.org API is better than YouTube search, IMHO. Would be nice if the JSON results had a key for the 11-character YouTube ID if one exists. Perhaps many videos published via YouTube will also be published via PeerTube. Also wish it was possible to "disable" use of Unicode in JSON values. As someone who searches and browses YouTube from the command line in textmode, I find the use of Unicode in YouTube titles annoying. Imagine if HN titles were filled with emojis and other garbage.
