Hello everyone! :D
You may know me from my last post I made: old post
Well, I figured making a new post would be best as these changes to the script are pretty major, and the old script is basically completely replaced. You can find the script over on Github, make sure to install the packages which can be found in the requirements (httpx being the new one introduced)
With my script it will allow you to download your whole library of Gfycats within minutes. The updated script introduces the following features for you to use:
-
The script is now asynchronous. The speed has improved at least by 10x.
-
The script will now query the following subdomains. Giant.gfycat.com > fat.gfycat.com > zip.gfycat.com, based on the response.
Before, the script would only download from Giant. The reason this is important is because only the larger sized gfycats are uploaded to this subdomain! So, we are essentially missing a fair amount of downloads.
I hope you enjoy this final version of the script and I hope you can savor your memories with it!
Have a fantastic day!
