Project mention: Show HN: A no-watermark video downloader for Any social media | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-17Well if yt-dlp is "too technical", there is always Open Video Downloader https://github.com/jely2002/youtube-dl-gui
Which is a GUI wrapper around it.
Project mention: Ask HN: Can we do better than Git for version control? | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-10> Visual Studio does a decent job of abstracting the GIT nuances, but I personally use GIT Extensions, which looks and feels much better on Windows than the other cross platform UIs.
IDEs and text editors sometimes have nice Git integrations in the UI, but I wanted standalone software that I can use for anything from various programming projects, to something like gamedev projects (with Git LFS) or arbitrary documents.
In the end, I just forked over some money for GitKraken, it's pretty good, especially with multiple accounts on the same platforms, when you want to switch between them easily: https://www.gitkraken.com/
There's also Sourcetree which I used before then, kind of sluggish but feature complete: https://www.sourcetreeapp.com/
For something more lightweight, I also enjoyed Git Cola on various OSes: https://git-cola.github.io/ Even Git documentation has a page on the software out there, a good deal of which is free and has good platform support: https://git-scm.com/downloads/guis
Quite frankly, I spend like 90% of the time using a GUI interface nowadays, when I want to easily merge things, or include very specific code blocks across multiple files in a commit, or handle most of the other common operations. Of course, sometimes there's a need to drop down to the CLI, but you're right that some GUI software feels like it actually improves the usability here.
