It was a different era 15 years ago, made some decent inroads on an API based approach with the Locker Project https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locker_(software) but the platforms quickly started gimping the APIs and exports/takeouts were non-existent or too early yet back then, so ran out of steam.

Thanks for making this, def will be digging in!

Yep, I encountered the same problem. Initially it was solely API-based, but as they got locked down and paid-only and removed entirely, I went the bulk download route.
