Show HN: I built an all-in-one social media downloader for 50 platforms
I’ve always been frustrated with how hard it is to download videos from the internet. Most of the sites that claim to do it are bloated with ads, auto-playing videos, fake download buttons, or just straight-up shady behavior. All I wanted was something minimal that actually worked — no noise, no popups, no tricks.
So, I built https://downr.org
It's a tiny project that just does one thing: lets you paste a link and download the video. That’s it. No registration, no browser extensions, no messing around with file converters. I didn’t build it to go viral or make money — I built it because I needed it, and I figured someone else probably does too.
I know it isn’t perfect — just so you know, UI improvements and bug fixes are actively in progress.

Personally I've never understood why would someone use a website to download videos when you have yt-dlp. A standalone program is more reliable and more ubiquitous than a website. And despite "yt" in the name, it's not only about YouTube.
If you don't understand this, in my opinion you have a little to learn about how the world works. That said yt-dlp is great.
