wget is a download CLI tool. Handbrake is a video transcoder. I feel like I'm missing something, or just missed the joke lol.

I Googled screenshots of "wget gui" and "handbrake software", both are GUI programs with a whole lot of dropdowns, checkboxes, etc.
Maybe that's the meaning of the parent comment?

Handbrake is aesthetically better, if slightly less powerful compared to MeGUI, but MeGUI is usable if one doesn't mind reading through some video encoding guides.
Whatever came before MeGUI was likely much worse.
