      unfortunately the poast one lets you open vid in new tab and save the video to your hard drive, whereas xcancel does not. not saying that’s an endorsement, but it is pretty useful if you don’t think something is going to stay up on twitter for political reasons.

          yt-dlp can download videos from twitter or any nitter instance or really any social media you can publicly view.
