yt-dlp CLI vs. yt-dlp GUI (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
submitted 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) by soaringeagle@lemmy.dbzer0.com to c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

On Windows 11, is it superior to use the command line interface (e.g., terminal) for interacting with yt-dlp? Or is a GUI like stacher.io sufficient for 99% of needs?

I'm also curious if it is better to use an Ubuntu WSL for yt-dlp CLI for a more streamlined terminal

FWIW I use the tartube gui in windows as it'll dl full playlists, even monitor channels and update with new released episodes.
