1. Get the channel’s id
    • Navigate to the desired youtube channel
    • View the page source
    • Search for channelId
  2. Specify the feed url using the format https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=THE_CHANNEL_ID_HERE in your respective RSS reader

Unforunately, youtube’s RSS feed does not contain an embedded video; instead, it provides a link to watch the video on their website. If you prefer to avoid youtube.com altogether options include:

  1. Download the video using the link provided with youtube-dl
  2. Use mpv to stream the video
  3. Use the open source youtube frontend Invidious with a redirector (e.g., Redirector or Privacy Redirect)
