Options:

• Just start it from the terminal with torsocks
• Use application-specific proxy settings
• Since torsocks simply uses LD_PRELOAD, you could try to make this apply globally by adding the torsocks library to ld.so.preload. Just put the path returned by torsocks show in /etc/ld.so.preload.

Either use the --proxy option of yt-dlp, or use torsocks to transparently torify any application.
