## YouTube Subscriptions
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are many reasons to avoid the YouTube homepage, such as recommended videos or the accursed Shorts.
|
||
|
|
Since RSS feeds are published per-channel, it's totally possible to circumvent its subscription system entirely - including having to make an account - and keep track of channels one enjoys with RSS feeds instead.
|
||
|
|
Get a channel's ID:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Go to the channel's page
|
||
|
|
2. Go to the About section
|
||
|
|
3. Share icon under Stats block
|
||
|
|
4. Copy channel ID
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The channel's feed is available at `https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=CHANNEL_ID_HERE`.
