i think this is the correct question to ask. did you just create ~/.local/bin folder? you can look at the end of ~/.profile that this will only be added to $PATH if the folder exists.
the easiest way is to log out and log in (no restart necessary!)
otherwise you can also execute source ~/.profile and then yt-dlp should be available.
the chmod +x tip from the other comments could also be necessary!


but then it should be “restricted” at top, and not “corporate”?
