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.

YouTube-dl fork with additional features and fixes
See elsewhere in the thread for details, but youtube-dl was restored by Github and is generally not considered to be in violation of the DMCA. You can see it on Github here: https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl
A copyright holder abused the DMCA process to take it down the first time.

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

Mobile Ad Blocker Will No Longer Stop YouTube's Ads
For me, the less-complicated client called "DVD" is more reliable for downloading than the client called "Newpipe"; the later stops working intermittently. YMMV.
(Neither are as reliable as using own custom command line programs on desktop, or mobile via Termux. If Google makes a change I can fix/workaround immediately. No waiting for app developers.)
For me, Newpipe works well as a Soundlcoud client.
From the Kotlin source for "dvd":
Video downloader app powered by yt-dlp (formerly youtube-dl).

If yt-dlp works, you can also use Celluloid to watch videos from Youtube — choose Open Location and enter the YouTube video or playlist page.

Give yt-dlp a try: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp
The only ads are the ones the creators insert into the videos themselves.
