Ok, let's say you selfhost RSS Bridge at myselfhost.net:1234. Let's say you want to follow a youtube channel, @fancyyoutuber, via RSS. Plug the channel into rss-bridge, and it outputs an RSS feed at myselfhost.net:1234/feed/youtube/fancyyoutuber/atom.xml (I totally made that link up). You plug that into your RSS reader of choice as the feed source, and, boom, the youtube channel is in your reader.
Ok. This makes it trivial to do so since youtube RSS feeds are eithet nonexistent or unreliable.
Congrats! My native youtube RSS feeds are mostly 404 or access forbidden, depending on the day, as are many others'.
