Nice useless meta tag. is only a useful tag when people tell you just what downloader they are using. On its own it serves no purpose.

Only a few questions tagged with it so it's an easy kill.

I actually consider it semi-useful. There are quite a few programs and games out there that use either some custom downloader or something rebranded (generally referred to as downloader, at least in many communities I know) and they might be hard to identify based on the customization being applied.

However, how about making it a synonym of ? While most download managers are more generic and allow you to download several things, downloaders are typically just specialized or limited download managers.

    Although synonimizing sounds like a good idea, it might give additional confusion to users.

  • tags for what the questioner is trying to do might be useful like download videos if newbies can find them
