I use RSS for following YouTube channels, but the only problem I have is that I have to click on each video, I'd like a RSS client to create a custom playlist, at least for all the music videos.
I used to use YouTube's email notifications, but they would skip some videos randomly, and I'd be left wondering what videos I missed.
- learc83 9y agoContent creators can choose to disable notifications on specific videos. Creators sometimes do this if they publish more videos than usual, or of the video is different from their normal content. Also when you subscribe you now also have to click the bell next to the subscribe button to get all notifications. YouTube itself also has a built in subscription feed that lists all videos published by channels you subscribe to. It also lists the channels with an icon next to each if they have unwatched video.
- icebraining 9y agoThat's interesting, my subscriptions only update once or twice a week so I never felt that need. How do you see it working? Create and play a playlist of currently unviewed videos?
- Franciscouzo 9y agoExactly, a "Make playlist" button on either a folder of YouTube channels, or on just a channel, that would make a custom playlist of all unviewed videos.
- samschooler 9y agoI use Feedly for this exact thing! YouTube's recommendations were either distracting or just not relevant. Feedly embeds the video right in the reader so no going to YouTube even. And now I only get the videos I want to watch.
