Hey all,

I was looking for a Youtube downloader to self-host, and when I found one that looked really great, it was no longer functional. So, I vibe-coded a new one.

Hermes is a front end app and a REST API for yt-dlp.

This is fully functional but I just got it on Github so give me a few days to publish images. But, feel free to clone it down now and build it yourself!

    Was pinchflat flawed in some way? I’m all for having more options but if this uses yt-dlp anyway I’m not sure this is contributing to anything.

      pinchflat I hadn’t seen that one before. No it’s pretty similar to be honest. I am planning on small feature that would make it slightly different but, ya same idea. I do like my UI more 🤷. That was my main issue with most of the existing ones that I had seen, I just didn’t liek the UI. Except for cobalt.tools, but it’s broken.
