I haven't done it, but I want to. A very important thing you should know is that only the most recent 5000 videos are kept in the history export, so my advice is to download it frequently.

What I've been doing is regularly getting the .json dumps takeout.google.com and merging them. (for around 4 years now)

I plan on eventually processing that data later to track usual statistics, but also for example my interests over the years (by grouping and then searching for common topics like Minecraft, Haskell, Covid, ...).

Thanks for the heads up! I thought that was the full amount of data.

My idea is to write a purely front-end application that takes a json file and uses a chart to visualize some interesting information by year, such as the most watched channels for the selected year
