Add Search Filters options for searching YouTube/YouTube Music Content

[RFL0WGitPR]

Description: I would like to propose the addition of search filters in SkyTube for categorizing search results when searching for YouTube/YouTube Music content. Currently, when performing a search, the results include a mix of Videos, Channels, and Playlists. This can sometimes make it challenging to quickly find the specific type of content I'm looking for.

Requested Feature: I am suggesting the implementation of search filters that allow users to refine their search results based on the following categories:

Search Filters For YouTube

• Videos
• Channels
• Playlists

Search Filters For YouTube Music

• Songs
• Videos
• Albums
• Playlist

Benefits:

1. Enhanced User Experience: Search filters would provide users with the ability to narrow down their search results to the specific type of content they are interested in, leading to a more streamlined and efficient search experience.
2. Improved Content Discovery: Users would be able to discover relevant content more easily by filtering out unrelated content types from their search results.
3. Tailored Searches: The addition of search filters would give users greater control over their searches, allowing them to focus on the content type that best meets their needs.

Potential Implementation: The search filters could be implemented as 3 dot buttons or checkboxes that appear next to the search bar. Users would be able to select one or more filters at a time to refine their search results.

Additional Notes: I understand that this feature may require some backend changes to the search functionality. However, I believe that the benefits it would bring to the user experience and content discovery process make it a valuable addition to SkyTube.

Thank you for considering this feature request. I believe that the inclusion of search filters would greatly enhance the usability and utility of SkyTube for users who frequently search for YouTube/YouTube Music content.
