Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition?
Two projects I greatly appreciate, allowing me to easily archive my bandcamp and GOG purchases (after the initial setup anyways):
https://github.com/easlice/bandcamp-downloader
https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc
And I recently learned about archivebox, which I think is going to be a fast favorite and finally let me clear out my mess of tabs/bookmarks: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox

Forget spaceships; I just want my music
Reminder to archive all purchases

I have a windows oriented “get past setup pain points” tutorial here: https://github.com/easlice/bandcamp-downloader/issues/21
For generating a cookie file, I suggest just using https://github.com/hrdl-github/cookies-txt

Bandcamp has been sold to Songtradr. What does this mean for the musicians?
Make sure to archive your bandcamp collection, which you can do with the following script: https://github.com/easlice/bandcamp-downloader
I have a straightforward guide on how to get up and running on windows here: https://github.com/easlice/bandcamp-downloader/issues/21
You should always archive your collection anyways. One negative thing about bandcamp is that artists/labels/bandcamp can remove anything at anytime for any reason, so things you paid for can straight up disappear. This was very disappointing to discover. Note that sometimes things are set as hidden, rather than outright removed. This info may be outdated, as the relevant support page seems to gave changed from the last time I looked at it.
Because of their no DRM policy and full on downloads, not just streaming, Bandcamp has basically become the only place I’ll buy music outside of CDs.
I’m happy enough to hand artists money if it’s easy and I can archive a lossless copy, but if they start fucking around with things, I’ll go right back to doing what I was before. That said, if they fix the outright removal of paid things problem, and start treating “artist” as first class instead of “label” in searches and links, I’ll be singing their praises.

Downloading a video should be “fair use” as recording a song from the radio
Bandcamp is what I use.
One thing to note, is that the artist/label retain full control of what music is present, and as such can be removed at any time, even ones you paid for. See: https://get.bandcamp.help/hc/en-us/articles/4406122372119-Wh...
I use https://github.com/easlice/bandcamp-downloader to immediately archive flac files to my NAS after a purchase, then convert to those to a lossy for space saving format for mobile playback/family sharing as desired with a playlist. This way I have my archive, and the artists I like get their support.

Show HN: Use cookies from Chrome (CDP) in cURL without copy pasting
I've had kind of the same problem in the past. For me I built a cookiejar textfile generating chrome extension, because it turns out most relevant tracking or session cookies are on external domains or oauth provider domains. [1]
