I am getting the following error after upgrading yt-dlp

ERROR: [Piracy] This website is no longer supported since it has been determined to be primarily used for piracy. DO NOT open issues for it

Does anyone know any forks that still works.

Is that an indirect plea to open an issue for it? We should do this.

Could be a liability for them to have to work on support for those sites when it breaks.

Sounds like its time for a pirate fork... maybe yt-dlpirate?

I mean, fuck it, one of the big private trackers could do releases, kind of like how Bibliotik does releases of those tools to strip DRM from ebooks.

some way to call a custom or 'third party' (not compiled into the program) extractor would probably be enough. then let other people work on ones for the, um, 'problem sites'.

Right. Site plugins or something.
