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

    That’s not GrayJay. That’s YT. They’ve started blocking access to users who use a VPN without logging in.

    God forbid they don’t know everything about you.

      Aye, that was my suspicion. Really awesome to be stripped of options for privacy so they can suck down that data.

      Yt-dlp still works thankfully.
