I see videos from Twitter uploaded directly on posts?
How do you do that?

Once you've downloaded youtube-dl
Code:
youtube-dl.exe -f best https://twitter.com/TwitterURL -o "Filename.mp4"So use a separate application?
Yes. No way to do it directly from Twitter.
There are plenty of sites out there that will strip out the actual video source from a Twitter post, eg. https://www.savetweetvid.com/ Just drop the tweet url in there, and it'll give you the actual video source that Twitter obscures. It's probably using youtube-dl in the backend.

You get three guesses.

This is really autistic, but you can open page inspector and get the link for the twitter video that way. The inspector will let you see the HTML for the twitter webpage. There is a button to get the Element Select tool that when activated will let you click on the video on the page to take you to the element in the inspector. In the inspector it should look like this.
With the link you can then download it. If you visit the link and it starts playing, then you can right-click and 'save video as'.
HTML:
<video src="https://where.twitter.com/puts/its/videos/"></video>
