debian 13.0, downloaded yt-dlp with wget https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/latest/download/yt-dlp -O ~/.local/bin/yt-dlp

the python script is in that directory, but if I execute yt-dlp on the terminal it returns bash: yt-dlp: command not found

what should I do?

SOLVED: add .local/bin to your $PATH

You also need to chmod +x path files downloaded from the internet to make it executable.
