I've been working on a cross-platform, fully open-source YouTube/media downloader called *YouTubeGO*.
Built with *Python + PyQt5*, it provides: - MP4/MP3 downloads using `yt-dlp` - Playlist support - System tray integration - Download queue + scheduler - Drag & drop support - FFmpeg detection for audio extraction - Modular code structure (core/ui/tests)
Why I built it: Most alternatives are either Electron-based (bloated) or CLI-only. I wanted something lightweight, native, and clean that just works on Linux, Windows and macOS.
