I use it for news aggregation with Nextcloud news. Also for podcasts and PeerTube channels. Anyone using RSS for other things?

I use RSS to watch YouTube videos. I collect the ULRs of the videos I want to watch in a text file using my feed reader (Newsboat). In the evening a script transfers the file to my TV computer and fetches the videos with yt-dlp.
To play the videos I use another script, which plays and then trashes the video files in a loop.
Pros: no ads, no buffering videos during playback, plays videos without interaction (like TV), can collect video URLs over day, don’t have to bother with YouTube’s user interface, cookies etc.
I like that idea! Any chance you would be able to share the script or the general workflow?
I just wrote down simplified versions of my scripts. Then I clicked the wrong button to exit the markdown preview and now it’s all gone. I’ll have to drink a beer now, sorry. If you have any specific questions, I’ll answer them gladly.
