Environment:
n/a

Expected behavior
pytube contains substantially broken functionality and hasn't been patched in years.

pytubefix appears to be a maintained version that's stupidly easy to switch to.

Describe the bug

To Reproduce

To fix:
Swap out dependencies configurations from pytube to pytubefix.

Grep on each "pytube" and simply change in the headers, e.g.,

from pytube import Playlist

to

from pytubefix import Playlist
