I've been a longtime user of Easy Video Downloader and used it to download audio and video files from Youtube for personal use. Recently it stopped working for me, so I reached out to support. They were very quick to respond and worked through possible causes with me some which turned out to be a cookies issue. I highly recommend Easy Video Downloader . The name says it all EASY and it works flawlessly. Thank you guys!

Does absolutely nothing on Firefox 141, and when I emailed the author asking how to make it work (or to report the issue to him), I got an email claiming that he doesn't intend to make it work as long as YouTube has restrictions, and promoted in the email a $30/year desktop app I can use instead:

---
YouTube has aggressively begun blocking our server IP addresses, leading us to rely on thousands of proxies to mitigate this issue. Unfortunately, this dependence often results in unreliable speeds, broken downloads and blockage after a few hours and as of now almost all datacenter IP's are blocked by Youtuebe and server based downloading is now a thing of the past. This is done because of the upcoming AI wars between companies

To address this limitation, I have developed a desktop app that offers several additional benefits:
---

Mozilla should take this false, advertising add-on down, and DEFINITELY off their "Recommended" list.

With all the limitations from YouTube, this extension is probably the best way to download videos from their site. I initially had an issue with the download. If you also experience issues, my solution may work for you: instead of Firefox, use Chrome; the download may stall/pause multiple times, so you'll need to monitor the download progress and click "continue" each time to get it to download. Once it is downloaded, it works great.

doesnt work at all

Thanks to big-wigs, this add-on is not working anything like it used to. It cannot even find Youtube's domain (Google, Co.). Do users not need their own legal services, and not domains denying all users' rights?

Leider nicht funktional, es hat einmal funktioniert, aber seit YouTube ein neues Format nutzt, erkennt es keine Medien mehr.

No longer works

No longer works

Not working

merci

There has been no Download drop-down button for over 6 months. What is happening?

Não funciona

This extension does not work with Firefox 141.0.

The "Generating download links, pls. wait..." message never goes away. No download links are being generated.

Mozilla should not recommend this extension as it does not work.

I recently renewed my subscription and for those who complained about the still downloading link forever I would like to share I faced the same issue.

But luckily I checked my email as everytime you renew your subscription he will send notification and an explanation or update of current issues faced. And I clicked to the link in which he will lead you to download under whichever OS your pc is and from there no issues. Then later on I faced downloading issues like you may face ratelimited issues or something like that. Again, I just need to email him and they will respond usually asap either on the next biz day or even same day response. And again in 5 star customer service, he will send you another IT solution or link with full detailed guidelines very useful for I'm not IT savvy - idiot proof and again I'm up and running.

So it's really fair to say this developer is earnest to provide top notch service unlike others who charged exorbitant prices and their service is below par.

Because he is really doing a great job, I even bothered to learn how to do a review and leave a review as he mentioned it's sometimes disheartening to read negative reviews. Freedom of speech I agree but for this developer he really is doing his best and does let you donate an amount you're comfortable. I did write I have financial difficulties so I can't donate as much as I would like to but he still gave me first class service, regardless.

In this day and age and almost everything hangs on dollars and cents, I think it's very gentleman of him to have such integrity. For naysayers out there, plse email him and try to check your email everytime you renew your subscription and perhaps just perhaps you'll realize that not everyone is that crappy as you think. There are still very decent people out there trying to do a decent job and have good work ethics.

This is my way of thanking the developer and his great team for all their efforts all this time. Keep up the great work and a big thank you for making not so rich people like us still have decent IT services. A rare find in this day and age indeed !

So for those of you who
