Get Clean YouTube Feed URLs

Over on my dumb blog I talked about how I found a way to get a feed URL that didn't include Shorts and streams as the default feed does. Doing it manually is fine and all, but if you have dozens or hundreds of channels in your RSS reader already, you'll want a way to construct these new feed URLs as quickly as possible. This page will hopefully help.

We're looking for a YouTube channel URL or ID here:

  • https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNqlKAVi39GeSzAvRdXN7LQ
  • https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHnyfMqiRRG1u-2MsSQLbXA
  • UCNqlKAVi39GeSzAvRdXN7LQ
  • UCHnyfMqiRRG1u-2MsSQLbXA

Username URLs (those with @) won't work until I connect this to the YouTube API (which I won't do).
