Thanks to a meetup at our local hackerspace @metalab , I have learnt about a web-based, open source, highly accessible video downloader frontend you can fire up at cobalt.tools. Really easy how it works: 1. You open the site; 2. you paste the link into the edit box; 3. You press enter; 4. The standard "Save File" dialog comes up. All the extra stuff like formats and qualities can be set in the settings and a choice between a video, audio-only or video-only version is offered under a button below the link input.

cobalt.toolscobaltcobalt lets you save what you love without ads, tracking, paywalls or other nonsense. just paste the link and you're ready to rock!

@Piciok DO we know what this uses as a backend? If it's youtube-dl based I sure hope it's using very recent versions of yt-dlp.

@Piciok Oops, the list of supported sites has no spacing to the virtual buffer, causing an absolutely huge blurb of nonsense to get thrown at the SR. I should open an issue about that.

@x0 True that, this small nag does exist there.

@x0 I think it is custom-built because they keep mentioning new services they add in each release. It might be based off YTDL-P though.
