yt-dlp can download videos from tiktok and instagram. That's what I use when I have to
mpvalso usesyt-dlpwhenever installed, although it is referred to in the docs asyoutube-dlfor historical reasons. You can specify stuff with --ytdl-format (yt-dlp -f equivalent) and --ytdl-raw-options (=thing=thing,anotherthing=anotherthing). Pop in a--ytdl-format=251with a YouTube playlist and you get a nice little music player.Do they not get metadata about your machine even if you use yt-dlp?
