Comment:
Sorry, I should have been more clear. Due to new regulations the service was forced to change it's bussines model. It is now impossible to share links with others and the service only works as a personal cloud storage. No public file sharing, nor sharing between accounts is now possible. You can read more in [this English article](https://alternativeto.net/news/2023/11/ulo-shifts-to-private-cloud-storage-ending-public-file-sharing-under-the-eu-s-dsa/) for instance.
The point of the downloader was to circumvent speed limits by creating tens of TOR circuits and downloading only specific chunks of the target file, since the service made it possible to start the download from a specific byte. This resulted in many parallel downloads and then concatenating the parts into the original file. Since downloading from links is no longer available and you still have to authenticate to get you private files, this program serves no purpose.
