- extra88 1y agoThe script doesn't work anymore, `externalId` is no longer found in the page source. That's okay, I've found a regular type="application/rss+xml" <link> is in the page head of YouTube channel pages but only if you load that page directly; if you follow links within the site to the channel page, it's an SPA and you don't get the channel URL's <link> elements. The channel page also has a <link rel="canonical" …> and that URL ends with the channel ID, even if it has an `@` handle.
