I don't trust Jack. But this does seem marginally interesting. Actually decentralized, no servers supposedly. We'll have to see. Again I sure as hell I'm not going to trust dorsey.

But definitely nothing to get excited about currently.
youtube-dl and yt-dlp are under unlicense. it's just boilerplate legalese for public domain
