I tried to download some videos from Reddit using YT-DLP and it didn't work, I think maybe because Reddit limited access

Make sure yt-dlp is up to date. I’ve been able to download reddit, YouTube shorts, TikTok, videos etc just fine
I don't think I've had issues with reddit, as long as you use the link to the reddit comment thread, not one of the shortlinks or the video link or something else.

Used to DL a bunch of Peloton videos during a free trial then self-host on Plex.
