Can anybody help me?
I downloaded python 3 using 'brew install python' , but youtube-dl seems to be using python 2.7.

Outdated python.

That’s what I thought, how can I update Python? I did run ‚brew install python’ but Youtube-dl keeps using python 2.7. groeten, Jan Van Kerckhoven Op 18-mrt.-2018, om 14:11 heeft Sergey M. <notifications@github.com> het volgende geschreven:
