Description

arca.live uses a hashtag number identifier as people can have the same usernames. However gallery-dl does not see these userpage links as a valid URL for the arcalive extractor

example:

User: ㅇㅇ#10727074

User url: https://arca.live/u/@%E3%85%87%E3%85%87/10727074

Trying to run gallery-dl on this url results in:

[gallery-dl][error] Unsupported URL 'https://arca.live/u/@%E3%85%87%E3%85%87/10727074'
