Hello. Im really sorry if thats the wrong flair, but I'm having an issue trying to download a reel from Facebook, as corny as that is. I copy the link of the video I want and paste it in and then it tries to download a different video but from the same creator. Is there a way to fix this?
reproduction steps
Copy link of intended reel
Go to cobalt.tools
Paste link after spinner stops
Click the arrow
Different video than the one intended shows up in new tab
screenshots
No response
platform information
firefox on galaxy s10e
additional context

Additionally, the one it's trying to download is the reel posted two weeks before the one I'm trying to download
