While YT technically still has a legacy RSS feed service, it does not actually contain any videos. This server provides an RSS feed for a given channel. It relies on yt-dlp for retrieving the actual video instead of just embedding YT player.
Install Locally (Apple Silicon)
There is a published apple arm binary on Homebrew for running it locally.
# Make sure the package manager is up to date
brew update
# Install the server
brew tap levitatingpineapple/formulae
brew install yt-rss
# Start the service
brew tap homebrew/services
brew services start yt-rss
# Check that the service has been started
brew services list
By default the server runs on port 8080
.
You can subscribe using the handle of the channel in rss:
http://localhost:8080/@Fireship
Warning
Requires reader which supports rss enclosures
