Is yt-dlp/yt-dlp safe to depend on?
Community trust supports it. Its maintainer, yt-dlp, has very high trust from the AI & Machine Learning community, and the signal holds across AI & Machine Learning, Web & Cloud, Terminal & CLI, Rust, Security, Native Development, Web3, and China OSS. This reads the maintainer's standing in developer communities' star graphs; it does not audit the code, the package contents, or who publishes it to a registry.
