Hear me out. I understand the value of clickbait when making stuff on Youtube. If you make dry titles, nobody’s gonna click on it. But if a person is subscribed on RSS, it’s a different story, in that case you don’t need clickbait to make people want the episode (and people watching on RSS don’t make the YouTube algorithm happy).
So maybe it would be nice to have two different titles: a clickbaity one for YouTube and a dry one for RSS. This could be a reward for using a clearly superior system.
This would be too much work. If you’re getting through RSS and you’re going to watch it anyway - what difference does it make?
I don’t know that everyone who uses RSS to follow YouTube channels will actually click on each video. I “subscribe” to (i.e. follow the RSS feeds) lots of YouTube channels but there are some that I only watch a few of the videos.
What would be nice for me is if YouTube would include some of the description text in the RSS feed in addition to the video title. That could save me from clicking through in some cases. The video feeds I subscribe to on PeerTube do that which is nice.
