As it stands, both Piped and Invidious are dead. Because od that, I almost completely stopped watching youtube but l'd still sometimes like to check what the people I follow posted (I used to do that via Piped). Are there any new ways of following people without actually using Google? I'm aware of the tools that download new videos as they come out but I'm more interested in just "subscribing", kinda like RSS?
Ideally it would be on iOS

Edit: I found it, “Unwatched” on iOS is awesome, thanks to !FundMECFSResearch@lemmy.blahaj.zone

I was using freshrss which can grab the rad feed for a channel, but I’ve moved to tube archivist with a Jellyfin plugin. Now they are all predownloaded and just show up on my tv via Jellyfin app.

It’s a way better way to keep track of what you want to watch.

Just curious if there's a setting in any of those applications that removes downloaded videos which have been watched at least once, and after x amount of time? It's sort of like a watch list. If watched, I don't want to keep the video. But if I do, I can add it to a playlist and let PinchFlat download it for archive.

Deleting after x days is possible with Pinchflat, iirc.

I don't think it checks if the video is watched in Jellyfin.
