It seems like the biggest difference between Daily and Festal services is the use or absence of the Octoechos. Daily matins has no anavathmoi, Gospel, seasonal katavasias, praises, or Great Doxology; vespers has no entrance and uses shorter versions of the hymns at LIHC.
I don’t have any experience chanting daily vespers or matins; our parish has done the Forty Liturgies for the most recent Advent cycle, which are different from a regular DL but I don’t know if that counts as a “daily” service as described in the video.
After the first week of Lent, we have Compunctionate Vespers on Sunday n ights, Great Compline on Mondays, Sixth Hour and Presanctified Liturgy on Wednesday evenings, Presanctified Liturgy on Friday at noon (I don’t remember if we started with Third Hour or not), and Salutations on Friday evenings.
