Summary
Analyze keywords

Adds a context menu to save media {image, video, audio, link, selection, page} in user-defined folders or directories relative to the default download location.

Save into dynamically named directories.

Flexible rules-based download renaming and routing.

Option to save as shortcuts {.url, .desktop, .html redirect}.

The WebExtension API only allows saving into directories relative to the default download directory. Symlinks can be used to get around this limitation:

Windows: mklink /D C:\path\to\symlink D:\path\to\actual macOS/Unix: ln -s /path/to/actual /path/to/symlink

Make sure the actual directories exist, or downloads will silently fail.
