In their own words
Persepolis Download Manager
Persepolis Download Manager is free and open-source software for managing downloads. It supports multi-segment transfers, queues, and scheduling, so downloads can be organized and set to run later. Its video finder supports sites including YouTube, Vimeo, and DailyMotion; version 5.2.0 can display thumbnails and choose the highest quality automatically. Persepolis handles HTTP and HTTPS links, with up to 64 connections and SOCKS5 and HTTP proxy support. It runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux, with browser integration guidance for Firefox, Chrome or Chromium, Opera, and Vivaldi. Linux installation choices include Ubuntu, Debian, Arch Linux, Fedora, and openSUSE, as well as a bundle that runs without separately installing prerequisites. The project also provides macOS and Windows installation instructions. Linux and BSD video installations may use yt-dlp and ffmpeg as optional prerequisites. There is no official FreeBSD package, and the version in FreeBSD's official repositories is described as very old.
