edit: Guys, I now yt-dlp is the way to go, but is there a gui front end for yt-dlp with all the options that I get on cli? Or else, just advice me on how to use the yt-dlp cli

I need the best audio-quality and I want it to be webm and want it to be downloaded with transcripts too, so what should I do?

I tried this snap video-downloader and it was able to download a webm file and it’s amazing. I love it. But, I am not sure if it’s the best quality I can get. I was wondering what Linux native software you used to download Youtube audio in it’s best quality.

btw, when I downloaded the .webm file, I got it along with the transcribed text and it plays in the place where video subs play and it’s quite nice.

Something else

https://www.makeuseof.com/download-youtube-videos-yt-dlp-linux-terminal/

Removes all sponsors and downloads the best audio into Videos/yt-dlp

cd Videos/yt-dlp &* youtube-dlp yt-dlp -x --audio-quality=0 --sponsorblock-mark all --sponsorblock-remove all [YOUTUBE-URL] && cd ~

sudo snap video-downloader

Video-downloader snap downloads the package Video-Downloader and this can be opened through terminal (you can create a .desktop file through menulibre for this) And all videos with varying degree of quality can be downloaded here. But, this doesn’t include sponsorblocks so idk, use yt-dlp here too, but I don’t download videos so I don’t really care for this.
