Migrated from youtube-dl to yt-dlp (version 2022.01.21). This will ensure compatibility with the upcoming macOS releases. This release might be incompatible with older macOS releases which don't have Python 3 installed.

Download resolution is increased (720p on everything I tested).

Error handling was implemented.

Crash reporting with Sentry was added. (Completely opt-in, so no analytics will be shared unless you click on the button)
