I used to use one of these in the late 90s. I think it was called Filezilla (Downzilla? I forget; something zilla anyhow) or something, and it made dinosaur sounds when queuing up downloads.

Holy shit I totally forgot about this!

Used to make me so happy hitting 9 kbps download speed 🥹

Adding to the queue was the absolute best and the aesthetic was definitely late 90s early 2000s it was awesome!

Yes! Preaching to the choir here, but just in case someone finds this useful: JDownloader is your one stop shop for any DDLs you might have. Take a few minutes to look it over. It’s great.
