You-get: Dumb downloader that scrapes the web
Just switching tabs will dramatically lower energy usage without using any scripts. I assume the YouTube video player may download and just drop the video information if not showing it, no need to render decrypt the video stream.

YouTube doesn’t encrypt the media stream other than TLS. Decoding the video can be skipped though.
