I was using youtbe-dl to download something, it says:

I tried to remove youtube-dl using

sudo apt remove youtube-dl                                                                                                                                  
[sudo] password for xiaoxn:

Package 'youtube-dl' is not installed, so not removed
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Then I run

youtube-dl --version

It seemed that I can not remove youtube-dl and I can not use it either.

Regarding HTTP error 429, see pinned issue #23638.

To get a working up-to-date yt-dl, do something like this:

sudo rm -r /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
python3 -m pip install 'https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/archive/refs/heads/master.tar.gz'

sudo rm -r /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl

best not to use rm commands when you don't have to. Just delete the binary (using the GUI) from /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl (or delete the whole folder)

OP is using python 3.10, so they're better off running python3 -m pip install --update yt-dlp (after reviewing https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp#differences-in-default-behavior)

Who says there's a GUI?

At this screen, you may wish to not install a desktop environment, then Kali Linux becomes “headless” (no graphic interface) which uses less system resources up and commonly found on servers, dropboxes, low powered ARM devices, and the cloud.

That's entirely a matter for OP, though it would save us having to deal with the 429 issue.
