ok so I have tried opera with violentmonkey on windows and it works :-(
if you are tech-savvy, you could check the console via developer tools (ctrl + shift + i) for errors

the script is so simple, i cannot imagine what can possibly go wrong to be honest

on a second thought, I can only imagine some browsers prevent scripts from creating prompts/dialogs, will check into that now

@frouty or you can use the shell script, it does the same thing

Thank

@jeanpierrebertola for downloading, it's recommended to use yt-dlp or at least ffmpeg, here's a guide for beginners:
