Alert! Alert! v3.19.0

Fixed

  • Onboarding "Add URL" looked frozen. On the onboarding / empty-queue screen, clicking Add URL started the download but showed no feedback — the busy state (button → "Adding…", status → "Downloading…") was being applied to the editor controls hidden behind the onboarding overlay. The visible screen now shows the button flip to "Adding…", a live "Downloading…" status with yt-dlp progress, and any error inline.

Changed

  • Relicensed to Apache License 2.0 (from AGPL-3.0). AGPL's network-use clause didn't meaningfully apply to a desktop-only app; Apache 2.0 better fits a thin frontend that orchestrates third-party tools, with an explicit warranty disclaimer, limitation of liability, and patent grant. See LICENSE.
  • THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES rewritten to make clear Alert! Alert! contains no video-downloading code — URL loading is delegated to the independent yt-dlp project, fetched from upstream on demand and never bundled or modified.

Added

  • First-launch acceptable-use acknowledgment. A one-time disclaimer must be accepted before the main window opens, clarifying that you are solely responsible for the copyright/legality of any content you process. Stored under its own version-gated QSettings key.
