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.

simply downloading a video? sure, but literally anything else is insanely complicated for an average person.
If they want the music from a video they would have to look through all of https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp and probably still wouldn't find what they're looking for

Is searching in duckduckgo 'insanely complicated'? a screenshot of duckduckgo search, where duckduckgo assist tells to add "--extract-audio" and "--audio-format mp3" to the command, so it will extract audio from the video

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.
