Wow, so many gems here! I had no idea about `-Z` for parallel downloads—definitely trying that next.

And `--data-urlencode` is gonna save me so much hassle with API testing.

Thanks for the tips, everyone! Gonna bookmark this thread for sure.

(Also, that `-J` trick for filenames? *Mind blown.*)

`-v` is great, but `--trace-time` adds timestamps to verbose output. Super useful for debugging slow requests.

Also, `-m` (max-time) is a simpler alias for `--max-time`.

And if you’re scripting, `-f` makes curl fail silently on HTTP errors—better for error handling.
