You are responsible for confirming you have that right. See Acceptable Use.

Why switch from Y2Mate to TubePull?
TubePull is an ad-free, browser-based Y2Mate alternative for authorized YouTube and multi-platform downloads.
Unlike ad-funded converters that rotate mirror domains and open pop-under tabs, TubePull runs on a single official domain (tubepull.com) funded by optional subscriptions.
- One real download button, zero ad networks. No fake download overlays, push-notification prompts, or third-party redirect chains.
- True adaptive stream merging up to 4K. TubePull demuxes and merges separate DASH/HLS video and audio tracks server-side via FFmpeg, delivering 1080p Full HD on the free tier and true 1440p (2K) and 2160p (4K) on Pro.
- Save only the segment you need. Clip Range lets you choose start and end timestamps before downloading on every tier (up to 1 hour of output on the free tier).
- 12+ platforms in one place. Use the same downloader for YouTube, TikTok, Twitch, Instagram, Facebook, SoundCloud, and more.
The honest tradeoff: Y2Mate instances typically offer unlimited free downloads funded by advertising networks. TubePull's free tier is capped at 3 downloads per rolling 24 hours (up to 1080p and up to 1 hour of output length) so we can run hosted FFmpeg workers with zero ads. Pro is $4.99/month and removes the daily cap for normal personal use under our fair-use policy.

Why Y2Mate domains stop working or trigger browser warnings
Y2Mate is not a single static site; it operates across rotating domain extensions that frequently encounter ISP blocks, copyright takedowns, or Google Safe Browsing alerts triggered by third-party ad creatives.
