Hi

I want to get suggestion on a safe site to download youtube videos. I don't want to just take anything I find online.

Anyone heard of JDownload?

Thanks

Download or watch?
Video, or front-end player?
There are many instances of Invidious.

For example, the YouTube video;

Becomes; 
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=IMY5PCCjdlE

If the video does not run, there is an option to open another instance of Invidious.

Just some old music video from the 80s. I have no idea, it's not some current music that worth money. The group is Manhattan Transfer.

So you are asking about how to download YouTube videos in general, with no considerations to current legal issues because you are only going to download old videos that may not have issues. Nope.
