Both YouTube and Vimeo would very much like you to use their apps to view
their content please, and downloading beyond what the app itself supports
(usually a paid/premium option) would probably be considered a violation of
their terms of service. They may or may not detect such downloads and they
may or may not do anything about it.

Apropos of nothing, have you looked at yt-dlp?
