Didn't a recent YouTube update break most if not all downloaders? It borked cobalt.tools.

Video Downloaderhelper worked for me, I'll check it here shortly to confirm.

You can download the gameplay, but not the game. :(

Soukseek. Use nicotine+

This site is all about moviez and muzic. If you want warez and gamez too, you need to sail the high seas.

Sometimes that's literally the only place you can find some music.

Like there's on old 2008 LP by the Virgins which was really great; then they signed with Atlantic and they forced the lead singer to replace everyone. The old label went under, and now the only way to find that CD is on discogs and some shitty rips uploaded to yt.

I feel like soulseek (nicotine+) doesn't have much of a learning curve. Someone competent enough to get and use a command line utility to download YouTube content could probably manage fine. Though optimally you want to be able to open a port, which isn't always an option for everyone.

Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.


6. Defend your opinion


This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don't expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
