yt-dlp
I was surprised at how well it works but anything command line is not for normies
Nah I’m sorry. There is a point where it’s unreasonable to expect someone to learn something, but that isn’t it.
Using yt-dlp is extremely straightforward.
Being ignorant and proud of it is a horrid personality trait. The average person knows how to drive a car, how to call others using their phone and how to use an ATM.
Typing 7 characters and copy-pasting a link is well within their abilities.
If you are on an android phone you should check the F-Droid pages for Seal. No commandline, a nice GUI, works great.
This is the way, I use Seal.
Pro tip to teach people to fish instead of giving them a fish:
Whenever you’re looking for a new software tool to do something, especially something “sketchy” like this, add something like “GPL” or “open source” to the end of your search string. It might not be quite enough to raise the official site of the best tool all the way to the first search result, but it cuts way, way down on the scam sites.
Or perhaps even better yet, go straight to checking AlternativeTo.net.
Or add “reddit” and check what people recommend Though you would have to use Google or perhaps Startpage
May as well walk into an AA meeting and tell people they can just keep drinking
?
Reddit is bad and we shouldn’t use it.
But it’s not bad in anywhere near the same way as alcohol is bad for alcoholics. It’s a terrible analogy.
Hyperbole is dead. Everything is 1:1. Please label your jokes.
I am an alcoholic and I liked your joke :3
