Is there any yt-dlp frontend that downloads to the users local storage instead of the server's storage? (alien.top)

All the downloaders that I find only downloads to the server and I only want a UI without ads to make easies to use yt-dlp without the terminal.

Well, he could also install a VM, install Linux and then install MeTube and then download the files to his PC. So, yes, installing MeTube in a docker on his Desktop PC, does what OP wants with a completely unnecessary overhead of complexity because there are yt-dlp clients for virtually every os. It's a single binary on windows so there is absolutely zero reasons to install it in a docker container :)
