Meanwhile in the EU: TikTok, five other Chinese firms hit by EU privacy complaints

No. This is no help if YouTube blocks your IP range. And it’s not a podcast feed.

Yes, but many YouTube channels don’t have a RSS podcast equivalent. YouTube is somewhat of a walled garden, like Spotify is.

I don’t know. My ISP doesn’t know. And I won’t bother interacting with Google’s non-existing support.

My solution is moving away from YouTube whenever possible, for instance subscripting to podcast instead when a creator has a podcast with the same content.

YouTube has blocked a bunch of IP ranges, including residential ones, forcing people to use an account to watch videos. So self-hosting isn’t an option for everyone.

Is there a server component, or is everything running in the browser?
