## What it is
A Python-based multithreaded YouTube view bot that uses Selenium-driven browser sessions with free, premium, and rotating proxies to inflate video and livestream view counts, and exposes an HTTP API for control. The author has posted a notice that it no longer works and should not be used until a fixed release appears.

## Use cases
- increase youtube video views automatically
- boost youtube livestream viewer count
- selenium bot for youtube views
- rotate proxies for a youtube view bot
- run multithreaded youtube traffic bot
- self-hosted youtube views bot with http api

## When to choose
- You want a self-hosted Python bot that simulates YouTube views over proxy pools for educational or testing purposes
- You need to drive both regular videos and live streams with configurable free, premium, or rotating proxies
- You want an HTTP API to trigger view campaigns remotely

## When to avoid
- The author explicitly states it is not working anymore and tells users not to use it until a fix is released
- You need a legitimate, YouTube ToS-compliant way to grow an audience - this bot violates platform rules and causes view drops
- You require a maintained, reliable tool - the project is effectively dormant with broken core functionality
