Note that searching for a .m3u8 file does not show anything.
The video in question is on snapchat web. I don’t have a (smart) phone on me right now, so I can’t download it the official way.
I have no idea what a “blob: video” is but JDownloader is my go to for the vast majority of things I download. Now get off my lawn.
As a fan of jdownloader myself, it unfortunately does not work.
That bastard. Well, good luck on your search then.
Have you tried stacher.io ?
ytdlp can handle a lot of these services.
Record your screen while you watch it
I just searched for the original video on tiktok, where it came from.
I would do this as a last resort though.

For social media videos I always just search for <service> video downloader, paste the link to the post and get the video. I do this for Facebook, instagram, and Reddit. I don’t want some plugin I’ll use rarely and the web downloaders seem to work fine.

Stacher.io can download from nearly any source.

yeah, its on snapchat, a chat app, so its not too likely to have a video downloader made, especially since the app supports video downloading (just not web).

Don’t use snap anymore, but I used to be able to turn my data off after loading the video, save it to gallery, then reset the app to prevent sending a message

You just said web though, right? Not the app. There’s downloaders for everything if you have a link to a public post.
