CLUSTER DOWNLOADS-MACOS-QUALITY · 20 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-09-09

macOS media downloaders

This cluster consists of macOS applications for downloading and converting internet media, primarily videos and audio, often with quality selection and extraction from web pages. The dated entry history is too thin to read a shape from, with zero dated entries before the index start, so the cluster likely predates the index or its members are undated. Among traction leaders, cloudframe-downloader leads with 11 stars, followed by snip with 1 and video-downloader with 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
