I'm using pafy and the slow download speed is now happening on all my downloads, i was wondering if using yt-dlp would fix this and, if it does, how to use it on pafy

I hope there will be a way to fix this download speed issue, have a good day

You can use this solution (replace the youtube.py of your youtube_dl installation) or you can just use import yt-dlp as youtube_dl in every youtube_dl import that exists in the files of your pafy installation.

a simple solution, is to symlink the python module yt_dlp to youtube_dl
