Use yt-dlp to download your videos from Funimation!
As Funimation drama unravels, here's a reminder for you that yt-dlp is able to download Funimation videos. Use that opportunity to preserve your collections before they're gone! (and keep them forever and ever)
Credits to humble jbk@discuss.tchncs.de who brought that up!
yt-dlp is amazing, it's just magical and works everywhere!
It's great, but I wish there was a GUI front-end for it.
Be the change you wanna see in the world!
all front ends for yt-dlp

Thanks mate, I always feel a bit silly when someone links a GitHub page and I've not got a Scooby how to use it lol
Your URL just links to an image of Funimation. Was this meant to link to something else like a tutorial?
Link in post links to their github to me. They probably made it an image post to have the funimation image in the post :)
Basically that :D
Link in text! Picture is just picture.
What drama?
Sony owns both Crunchyroll and Funimation. Sony is consolidating Funimation into Crunchyroll, but they are not preserving people's digital collections. People are losing access to the digital collections they purchased on Funimation even though Sony isn't going out of business.
I do this for music, have a tiny batch script that I mostly borrowed from some other stack exchange post that I just dump the URL and the name of the file and it converts it to mp3 and dumps it into a folder. I use it to get music to DJ with for small house parties. yt-dlp is great highly recommend it for anyone
