Those that think they've seen it all and think they're "immune" or used to it make the dangerous mistake of sometimes searching for NSFL content that are sometimes mentionned on those types of questions just to test themselves.

I've seen a lot, way too much for my own good, it is never a good idea to search something like that up.

Truly hope your sibling as well as yourself aren't too scared of what it was you saw. Some of the content seen can sometime leave pretty heavy or permanent marks.

Any type of NSFL content mentionned could be a very bad thing for anyone involved.

I get that you are curious and that's fine but it could cause more harm than you might imagine.

Every time there is a new version available for the most part.

I go to the changelog of the app or software to see what has changed, since I only use FOSS I also have a broad glance at the code. If I know that what I am updating won't cause trouble for what I am currently doing (ie. A depency update that is used during a time I need to compile a big project), I go ahead and update.

In the case of new features I am not keen on, I usually keep the current version I have (and make any self-update impossible for said app/software), see if there is any reputable forks or fork it myself to remove said features.

I have a minimal amount of apps and software and I handpicked all of them specifically so that they follow what I want them to do. If for whatever reason they stray and become something I'd rather not use at all, I remove/purge them.

Security is also very important (to me at least). Not updating because a feature is unpleasant is fine as long as the app is fairly recent and has no way of communicating to any other apps or have any internet access.

Indeed quite something...

Also, no need to be sorry, you did nothing wrong.

In your case, you added something, it was a salad with pepper and salt during a time where you were craving something in particular.

What was crazy to me about the story I told was the poor tomato and carrots were unseasoned, bland, resting in the saddest plate I've yet to encounter, while the person eating it was considering what was in front of them a meal.

(Not sure why someone would downvote you for your comment by the way)

The whole thing was so surreal that I never bothered to ask about it.

Wasn't on a diet. Thankfully, they ate more during lunch and didn't have any health issues due to eating weirdly but those "meals" were something else..

Don't ask me why. Even I was speechless.

I knew someone who would eat a tomato for dinner with a few slices of carrots. Nothing baked, just a plain uncut tomato and slices of carrots.

I'm talking a functionnal human being, knowing the concept of cooking and the ability to walk to their kitchen with such a "dish" as they would call it. Not vegetarian either. They did like meat and whatnot. Saddest "meal" I've ever had the horror to lay my eyes upon.

The quality of the tool. Newpipe is mainly here to watch content. Sure, it has the ability to download said content but not in a granular manner.

Its like climbing mountains in cheap sandals or doing digital paintings in paint. Yt-dlp has a lot of options to get exactly what you want. Seal gives a simple interface which in itself has a bit more than what Newpipe has. The real power of Seal comes from the custom commands. Said commands being the ones you would use in your terminal or scripts using yt-dlp directly without a frontend.

To top it off, Seal can download everything yt-dlp allows you to download. It is not limited to the few sites that Newpipe support.

I made a rough guide of my setup for someone wanting to download videos from their browser. Since Seal uses yt-dlp, it will work with Youtube as well.

Hope this can help you out

Thanks for the information. I wasn't aware of that.
