Install Deno for yt-dlp

Due to recent changes by YouTube, yt-dlp now requires Deno (not Denort) to be installed in order to download YouTube videos in maximum quality. If you don't plan on downloading youtube videos, or don't care about video quality, you can ignore this tutorial:

Option 1: install Deno system-wide

Windows users should run powershell "irm https://deno.land/install.ps1 | iex". If that fails, run powershell "irm https://deno.com/install.ps1 | iex". If that also fails, run powershell "irm https://deno.land/x/install/install.ps1 | iex".

MacOS and Linux users should run curl -fsSL https://deno.land/install.sh | sh. If that fails, use curl -fsSL https://deno.land/x/install/install.sh | sh

Option 2: install Deno for yt-dlp only

Instructions for YouTube:

There is a small chance your account could be banned. DO NOT login with an important Google account (such as an account you use for Gmail)

If yt-dlp is asking you to log in, first try running --update-to nightly to see whether it fixes the issue!

Export cookies automatically (this works on MacOS and Linux, but it only works on Windows if you use Firefox):

  1. Log into YouTube in your browser

How to update to iOS 17 and keep trollstore

NOTE: I have not tested this tutorial. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. Some parts of this tutorial are copied verbatim, see the list of sources at the bottom.

WARNING (PLEASE READ): You may end up stuck in supervised mode. The downsides to that are:

  1. A message will display in Settings, showing that your device is supervised
  2. Activation lock will be disabled, potentially making your device accessible by thieves (FindMy will still work however)
  3. If your device has Mobile Device Management enabled (e.g. a school or work device), then your organisation will be able to silently install and uninstall apps on your device

Anyway, onto the tutorial:

  1. Install Trollstore (https://ios.cfw.guide/installing-trollstore/). For reference, here's a list of arm64 devices that are compatible with iOS 17. All other devices are Arm64e:
