By the way @stephenrobles.com, I just launched Macabolic on Product Hunt today! 🚀

It's a native, free and open-source video downloader built with SwiftUI.
As a Mac power user, I’d love for you to check out my launch:

The headless Mac struggle is real! 😅
I was dealing with this recently too, so I built a workflow using Shortcuts to avoid this mess.

It allows using the iPad as a main display via simple USB cable (no capture card/Orion needed).
