Use an RSS feed aggregator and add the YouTube RSS feed to it.<br /> Disadvantages:<br /> - in the RSS feed of the YouTube channel, there is very little data, there are only 15 latest items.<br />2. Create a YouTube brand account for each channel topic.<br /> Disadvantages:<br /> - accounts are presented in the form of a list, but not a tree, so you cannot create a group for a group of channels;<br /> - to move a channel from one group to another, you need to unsubscribe in one account and subscribe in another, this is slow;<br /> - each group is on a separate page, to merge videos from several topics, you need to create a new account and subscribe to channels;<br /> - changing the group, requires changing the account, which leads to the page reloading, and this requires additional time.<br /><br />Recommended way<br />Use a tool specially created for this purpose - the "Channel groups and rating" browser extension.<br /> Bonuses:<br /> - you can group channels, even those to which you are not subscribed;<br /> - you can collect YouTube comments, which will allow you to create dossiers of channels, it is useful to know when you want to unsubscribe from the channel;<br /> - you can organize channels using the rating, which allows you to limit the list of videos with one button, this is useful when you want to narrow the choice regardless of the topic of the channel;<br /> - groups are now stored on your own Google Drive, so you don't depend on YouTube.<br />Check out the tutorial https://youtu.be/CPuQMmbIfj4?list=PLDUyN_kCtEi0vJuu4pcSZFNtE4JgKw0vJChannel groups and ratinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05635342987464409917noreply@blogger.com
