Random'ish question, while I update my offline media library, but what's everyone using to rip/download Youtube videos these days?

Preferably FOSS, but also on Windows.

I'm presently using MediaHuman for youtube music, but their regular youtube video downloader is limited trial unfortunately.

@dutchbarracuda I was looking this up just an hour ago! I found this great GUI app for Windows (https://github.com/aandrew-me/ytDownloader).
For Android I use the Seal app (https://github.com/JunkFood02/Seal).
