This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I was surprised at how well it works but anything command line is not for normies

Anyone who’s done “/gamemode creative” is smart enough to figure out “yt-dlp ”. Seriously people need to stop acting like typing the most basic commands that you can find tutorials about is some kinda level 9 magic

I think you've defined the problem rather well there..

It's not that Normies couldn't use it, it's that Normies won't use it.

Thats why I run it in docker with a web ui (On my server behind a reverse proxy, so I could get HTTPS working)

If you are on an android phone you should check the F-Droid pages for Seal. No commandline, a nice GUI, works great.

+1 for Seal, Newpipe and Tubular both work fine too

There's GUIs for it though. Obviously not for everyone, but I made my own.

That it can download virtually from any site is pretty useful, assuming you know what to give it.
