Continuous polling for live chat messages quickly exhausts this quota, making this approach unsustainable for long-term or frequent use. +> +> **Recommendation:** For a more sustainable and quota-friendly solution, please refer to the **`youtube-chat-webhook-v2`** project. That project explores alternative methods for fetching YouTube live chat data that do not rely on the official API and its restrictive quotas. + +--- + ## Project Description This project aims to provide a customizable way to view YouTube Live Chat directly in your terminal. It is implemented in `main.py`.
