Describe the feature you'd like

The cobalt.tools projects succeeds in downloading media files from e.g. social media sites where other tools fails.
It would be great if hoarder could somehow try using this tool to download media when hoarding a from a supported server (example: an instagram reel).

Describe the benefits this would bring to existing Hoarder users

Support for saving media from more websites.

Can the goal of this request already be achieved via other means?

cobalt.tools can be used to extract the media file link and then that can be hoarded directly or saved as an attachment.

Have you searched for an existing open/closed issue?
