Shout out to yt-dlp. My job as a content creator would become either way harder or impossible if it didn't exist.

I use yt-dlp constantly to download my own videos for which I don't have the final exports anymore. Yes, Youtube Studio does have a "Download Video" button, but it only lets you download the video in a laughably bad quality.

yt-dlp on the other hand lets me download the highest quality 4K version of any of my videos and that has saved my ass on multiple occasions

@notthebee German court has ruled that it is illegal to use because it circumvents the security of yt.

@twojays That's up there with one of the best bangers by the German court – "responsibly disclosuing vulnerabilities found in a security audit is hacking, actually" heise.de/news/Warum-ein-Sicher
