    It’s a hell of a lot more convenient to go to a shady site with an adblocker installed than install/update Python and a couple command line packages before manually performing conversion yourself.

      You can yt-dlg right off the microsoft store on windows which is just a straight up GUI for yt-dlp.

      “A couple command line packages”, well, since both yt-dlp and ffmpeg are command line tools and two technically qualifies as “a couple”, this is technically correct, but making it seem like much more of a big deal than it is at the same time.

      Also, you do not have to install Python for any of this. Never mind having Python installed is a good idea anyway.

        two doesnt ‘qualify’ as a couple. two IS couple. a couple is two
