bug description

ok so i don't usually touch cobalt outside of the .tools site but for whatever reason newgrounds support appears to be failing 100% of the time. i should iterate that i have only tested audio as that is what i'm after but regardless of whether or not the song is downloadable on newground's end it always appears to fail

reproduction steps

go to cobalt.tools
paste any newgrounds audio link
set the type to auto or audio
click >>
see attachment for what shows up
if you wait a few minutes and repeat, same thing happens

platform information

firefox 143.0.4 fresh, windows 11 24h2

additional context

again unsure if this is an exclusively main instance issue or an issue with newgrounds in general. i have tried my other alternative in the past and it is also not working. im guessing there's a possibility they've changed something?
