# RSS
Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is a an ancient file format for communicating updates over the Web.
## Stubs:
* readers
* feed generation
## 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`.
