I was trying to pause youtube-dl for something but I couldn't do it. I tried ctrl+c, ctrl+d, escape, q, etc.

There is no such functionality. You can stop youtube-dl with Ctrl+C, re-run and it will continue from where it has been stopped if possible.

Note that, at least on Unix, you can press Ctrl+Z and then resume it with fg %youtube-dl. Although I haven't tested how much time can you pause it.
