A lot of the YouTube channels I watch fit perfectly into the audio-only podcast format.
So I made a little script using youtube-dl that turns YouTube channels or playlists into RSS feeds for consumption in podcast apps. It gets rid of so much of the noise that makes consuming media on the platform itself a pain.
It's more or less deliberately crappy because I spent just enough work on it for it to be useful to me and intentionally avoided over-engineering so that I'd just get it done. The plan is to make it nicer, but I haven't gotten around to it so far.

- captn3m0 3y agoI've seen other solutions for this (https://github.com/frou/yt2pod https://github.com/frou/yt2pod, https://github.com/madiele/vod2pod-rss https://github.com/madiele/vod2pod-rss), but i like the approach of just generating these locally instead of keeping a web-server attached to the generator.
