I use Btrfs because it transparently protects data from bit rot and has a
very storage-efficient backup solution built-in. No stability issues so far.
Then again, I've been using Trisquel for less than three weeks.

The situation wouldn't be much better on other fixed-release distros, even
those that are currently up-to-date. They will quickly fall behind in their
versions of youtube-dl and incompatibilities
Did you install youtube-dl with pip or apt? I'd really recommend against
using apt because the version in the repositories is really outdated and
that's not good considering how often Google updates the API. If you
installed it through pip, you can run:
sudo pip install --upgrade
You are right, I did not know that. I have only been using Trisquel for 2
weeks or so and I assumed that it's an option based on the output of
youtube-dl. Still, there is a chance that OP installed pip from some
third-party source and then youtube-dl through it, so I'll leave that post as
Try
glxinfo -B | grep -A 10 'Memory info'
and tell us what you can see, this is a generic way to find the GPU VRAM
usage. As far as GPU usage is concerned, I have no idea.
