The german gov't has apparently shut down https://yt-dl.org - If you might want access to youtube-dl (It's python and useful on a lot of not-youtube sites), hit up your local distro mirrors and get a copy locally. Somebody with reach let people know?
@Orb2069 their GitHub is still operational for now https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl
Probably wise to grab https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp while you are at it

I'm getting weird messages from people.
Thanks.
@Edent Done, and apologies, didn't mean any trouble.
Oct 8, 2023, 4:51 PM@Orb2069 no worries. Appreciated.
@Orb2069 Collective Management Organisations aka. syndicators via german courts that are sympathetic to their cause. Not the german government. Big difference.
