Everyone is experiencing slow download speeds at the moment. Wait for youtube-dl/yt-dlp to be updated.

oh!I thought it was only me. Thank you for your answer.

Switch from youtube-dl to yt-dlp, and use a GUI that is still being updated. THere is a list here.

@alexvoz Youtube intentionally botched youtube-dl's speed. Use the alternative: yt-dlp

Well, that's a shame, the .exe file of yt-dlg doesn't work. =/

Seriously, we really need an update from youtube-dlg here! This software was so great! Please someone, try to find a way to fix that speed issue!

Have you tried the list of alternatives I posted above?

AH!!
At first, I opened the "Youtube-dl forks" and thought it was the good section to go in... then I noticed there are just one more "fork" outside of Youtube-DLG and "yt-dlp". So I thought there was another section to check and I tryed "youtube-dl GUIs" and then, indeed, I found Tartube in it, which works correctly and installs easily on Windows.

Thank's! I didn't notice I didn't search well enough. ^^'
