Show HN: Transcribe YouTube videos and Apple podcasts to Readable Markdown

https://github.com/shun-liang/yt2doc

There have been many existing projects that transcribe YouTube videos with Whisper and its variants, but most of them aimed to generate subtitles, while I had not found one that priortises readability. Whisper does not generate line break in its transcription, so transcribing a 20 mins long video without any post processing would give you a huge piece of text, without any line break or topic segmentation. This project aims to transcribe videos with that post processing.

Any feedback here, or on Github issues, would be very appreciated.
