Today was huge. I’ve separated myself enough from Google with Proton applications/services combined with other more privacy focused software and hardware to be able to completely delete my Google account.

It feels great to FINALLY be free of them. I’ve had an account there for decades.

    you can easily find a content creator’s channel id by browsing to their channel page on https://yewtu.be and checking out the url.

    you can then put that into a file which will be interpreted by an rss feed reader.

    newsboat, for example, would use the following format (using LearnLinuxTV as an example):

    https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCxQKHvKbmSzGMvUrVtJYnUA YouTube "~Learn Linux TV"

    whereas an app like feeder would require an opml file:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<opml version="1.1">
  <head>
    <title>
      Feeder
    </title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <outline title="Linux" text="Linux">
      <outline title="Learn Linux TV" text="Learn Linux TV" type="rss" xmlUrl="https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCxQKHvKbmSzGMvUrVtJYnUA"/>
    </outline>
  </body>
</opml>
