@hazelnot I used it like two months ago and back then it seemed to work

@joepie91 Hmm, any recommendation for a GUI for it? 😅

I can't remember all the command line arguments for this kind of stuff and I don't like just having a window with documentation open at all times to check every time I wanna use it lol

@hazelnot Just running `yt-dlp` without any further arguments should be enough

@joepie91 Huh, I thought I'd have to give it arguments for quality and download type and stuff, that was required last time I used a CLI-based YouTube downloader

@joepie91 (this time I wanna use it to download some audio from YouTube, not for TikTok grabbing purposes)

@hazelnot You *can* do so, but yt-dlp will pick reasonable defaults if you don't

@joepie91 Huh fair. Sorry I just have a lot of trouble focusing at all on documentation for CLI tools, I just get to a huge wall of arguments and my eyes glaze over and can't help but see it as an impassable monolith 💀

@hazelnot If you haven't installed it yet, I would strongly recommend installing `tldr`; you can run it like `tldr <command goes here>` and it'll show you some common/varied usage examples for the command, I often find it enough to remind me of how to use a tool without needing to refer to docs

@joepie91 Oh interesting, didn't know about this! I only knew about `man` and that one is, uh, just as bad if not worse than scrolling through a GitHub page lol

@joepie91 Hm. Running it with just yt-dlp and the URL gives me a "zsh: no matches found: [URL]" error 💀

@hazelnot That sounds like a shell-specific issue? Possibly a special character in the URL that triggers some shell feature, that you need to escape? I know very little about zsh

@joepie91 Yeah turns out the "?" was confusing it, I just had to put the whole thing in quotes
