toxicTom: For GOG I also recommend gogrepo.py. for general purposes that really depends on the site.
Unfortunately still nobody taught me how to use it - I tried but did not understand :(

It's complicated. I wrote batch files because I am lazy, but they work exceptionally well for me. If you've installed Python and the necessary modules, it will work great for you. Assuming you can use python and are comfortable with command line interfaces.

Let's say I am ABLE to use command line interface but I really don't like it.

What was your Galaxy problem? Maybe someone can help you.

I use uGet, it's free and open source. It's available for the most common OS's, I'm currently using for Linux and Android, works really well.

Technically most downloads can resume for a limited period of time, for example you can't resume it say the next day, to do that you'll need to use the GOG Downloader or Galaxy. :-)

zlaywal: I'm using Firefox 58 + FDM 5.1 and there's an add on if you wanted to fully integrate it. The alternative to it is to pause and get the download link, cancel it and add it manually to FDM.

I usually stay log on, but the download didn't stop if I close the browser.
Thanks for the reply. I'll have to check if downloads proceed after queuing them, and logging out of GOG.

That comment about resuming downloads sounds Interesting - have you tested it on GOG? And does queuing downloads then logging out of GOG work, or does one have to stay logged in while the downloads are in process?
