Describe the feature

Since version 2026.2.0 a 14–30 seconds sleep countdown was added to every download to avoid getting your IP banned from YouTube and a few other sites.

This feature request is for adding an option to disable it temporarily, or to skip the sleep on certain sites(For example Instagram or TikTok) for advanced user. This would be great specially for downloading shorts or low duration videos.

The defaults should be with the Sleep On since it's very useful specially for normal users using the default settings.
