Release notes
What changed in each ytb release, newest first.
What shipped in each release, newest first. Every tagged version builds the same set of artifacts: archives for Linux, macOS, and Windows on amd64 and arm64, Linux packages (deb, rpm, apk), a multi-arch container image on GHCR, and entries for the package managers. Binaries are pure Go, so there is nothing to install alongside them.
v0.5.0
A rewrite on public surfaces only: transcripts with no yt-dlp, ranged downloads, provenance on every record, and a new store schema.
v0.4.1
Native media downloads work again for current YouTube streams, including audio extraction to mp3 with ffmpeg.
v0.4.0

v0.3.2
New -o list format and a modern README with a demo GIF.
