NewPipe is great for mobile. It has a good user experience even for streaming videos; the download is also super easy to use. One of my favorite apps on my phone for sure.
my preference was always throwing the url into VLC and finding where the actual file was to download.
I assume this is what downloaders are doing behind the scenes anyway
Which downloader do you prefer?
Not OP, but I love yt-dlp.
Yeah I’d recommend that anyway since I think youtube-dl is deprecated? (Or is it not deprecated, just superceded by yt-dlp. I can’t rightly remember.)
Correct, youtube-dl is outdated and unmaintained
I’ll check it out, thank you!
can recommend yt-dl to download stuff from YouTube https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl
youtube-dl is outdated and unmaintained, yt-dlp is the currently maintained fork and should work much better
cheers mate!
I use newpipe already so it’s a quick download of video or audio file from newpipe itself as I’m looking through subscription.
