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

    It's laughable how symbolic and ultimately meaningless this is. GitHub had already proven themselves to be a good actor in this particular fight, so not only is the repo online, but we also have http://ytdl-org.github.io/youtube-dl/

    The Uberspace provider is appealing the decision as well. Even with the site down, this looks incredibly positive from where I sit.

  • yt-dlp

    A youtube-dl fork with additional features and fixes

    As noted in the article, the project still has a page on github:

    http://ytdl-org.github.io/youtube-dl/

    I've moved on to https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp anyways.

    But this is still an infuriating move. youtube-dl wasn't doing anything infringing on its site, was it?
