About RipMe

RipMe is an open-source album downloader, sometimes called a "ripper," that downloads images from online albums in bulk for archive purposes. It is a cross-platform tool that runs on the user's own computer and is confirmed to work on Windows, Linux, and Mac. It requires Java 21 or later. The project is distributed as a ripme.jar file from its latest release, and on macOS it can also be installed with a Homebrew cask.

It supports a list of websites, including imgur, tumblr, flickr, and reddit. Because each ripper depends on a site's layout, support can stop working when a website changes. The project page notes that the Twitter and DeviantArt rippers are currently broken. The project is maintained by volunteers in their limited free time.
