  • youtube-dl

    Command-line program to download videos from YouTube.com and other video sites

    Odd that no one's answered this by the time I came across it. Anyway, when someone uploads a GIF to Reddit, Reddit creates a video preview, which you can easily save with the usual right-click and save as or click through to request the original GIF. However, when someone uploads an actual video, Reddit will process that into a video format optimized for web viewing, with adaptive quality based on connection, and so on (called DASH video, if you're interested). For these, you'll have to use a tool. The easiest are the various websites where you can just input the thread URL and it gives you a link to download the video, like redditsave.com. I personally prefer using standalone software like youtube-dl, or its more active fork yt-dlp (which has extra features like the ability to detect when a video has chapters and download each one as a separate file).

  • yt-dlp

    A youtube-dl fork with additional features and fixes
