AB Download Manager is a desktop app which lets you manage and organize your download files better than before
I use wget
Looks good, but too bad it’s not on flathub but that’s to be expected if the Linux version is still in beta. I’ll stick to Varia until then.
Well I’ll try it, seems the UI looks like IDM but your version is cleaner & neat.
Compared to IDM or XDM what are the strong points about your download manager ?Not mine. It’s FOSS and do most of the thing that IDM and FDM can do.
What are you guys downloading that you need this for?
Linux ISOs obviously./s
On a more serious note: if you are downloading public domain movies or similar from the internet archive a download manager really helps.
I used to use one of these in the late 90s. I think it was called Filezilla (Downzilla? I forget; something zilla anyhow) or something, and it made dinosaur sounds when queuing up downloads.
Free Download Manager was pretty rad. Being able to resume the download later was a life saver for dial-up connections. I remember that it took me almost a week to download Gunbound.
I used flashget
I used to use it as well. Back in Windows 9x days I used to use GetRight. Now I use JDownloader.
God, we’re old
I use Jdownloader as well but it just seems…shady somehow. I don’t know why.
Holy shit I totally forgot about this!
Used to make me so happy hitting 9 kbps download speed 🥹
Adding to the queue was the absolute best and the aesthetic was definitely late 90s early 2000s it was awesome!
Bro, another killing feature of DMs (which is still a killing feature nowadays) is the ability to pause and continue downloads
Yes! Preaching to the choir here, but just in case someone finds this useful: JDownloader is your one stop shop for any DDLs you might have. Take a few minutes to look it over. It’s great.
