Setting up lynx
Also going to share this one, more for everyone else that's forgotten about it, https://gitlab.com/surfraw/Surfraw turns your terminal into a search engine. Its basically a wrapper around lynx (or any browser via the $BROWSER environment variable) to about 99% of every searchable site out there. Can even be extended with simple bash for new sites or even apis (yes, xml/rest/graphql apis).

YouTube-dl has been taken down
I see. According to the Web Archive, this website stopped working all the way in November 2023, and http://ytdl-org.github.io/youtube-dl/ now contains all the same content as the old one and is the new "official" website.

Ask HN: What's the Situation with YouTube-Dl?
The best way is to download the source from github, run `make`, and copy the the file to $HOME/bin . There hasn't been a release for about a year now and the files on the distro repos are even older (I think).
Also YouTube has been doing some changes lately on the the player and a lot of the tools fail to download audio or video.
For example, in the last couple of weeks there have been some issues with a redirect to a 'consent page' : https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/32499
