I don't think so for youtube-dl. I think it's dead now. There was already hundreds of PRs to be merged - so many videos already weren't able to be downloaded on various sites.

The codebase was not the useful thing about this project: it was the constant upkeep and whack-a-mole-ing of the various site changes over the 1000+ supported sites.

This event may spark renewed interest and help, but my money is on "slow death" as support for sites and videos decays.
