This branch is the development version of furaffinity-dl rewritten in python.

FurAffinity Downloader

furaffinity-dl is a python script for batch downloading of galleries (and scraps/favourites) from furaffinity users users or your submissons! It was written for preservation of culture, to counter the people nuking their galleries every once a while. and then modified for confinience.

Supports all known submission types: images, text, flash and audio.

Requirements

python 3

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

The script currently only works with the "Modern" theme

furaffinity-dl has only been tested only on Linux, however it should also work on Mac, Windows or any other platform that supports python.
