Feature description

Share RSS as link, instead of opening it in a browser, just like sharing the channel link beside it.

Why do you want this feature?

Most browsers already include their entry in share menu. Hence, you don't need to force us opening RSS link in our default browser.
Many also use an RSS reader app that we might wanna share the RSS link to it.

Additional information

Seems like it was recently got replaced completely by channel tabs. I'm turning this issue tracker into reviving it, as well as turning it into link share instead of opening it in my default browser.

Totally agree, also something along the lines of exporting your subscriptions as a rss list would also be great.

Makes sense. But open another feature request for that.

Was the button removed recently? I cannot find it.

It's beside channel share button.

@J053Fabi0 @foxjaw Apparently the RSS button is missing since the channel tabs feature was added https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/discussions/10816#discussioncomment-8410535

Changed the issue title & description. Now this tracker holds for the revival of RSS, as well as turning it into link share instead of opening it in the default browser.

I'm also very interested in getting that easy access to the channels rss feeds back!

It could also be added to the playlist views with great benefits (for me, at least :]). The hidden URL for playlists RSS feed is https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?playlist_id=<PLAYLIST_ID>. Here's one as an example.

@Lertsenem RSS inclusion for playlists, you should open an another feature request I guess. This issue is regarding to solve only revival of it.

For anyone missing an easy way to get the RSS link, I built a Telegram bot for that. You send the channel URL and it replies with the RSS link. It's open source too. It also allows you to add that RSS to your FreshRSS if you send /freshrss and login.

@J053Fabi0 You can also use Jeff keeling's website. No need of telegram. Alternatives do exist btw. But it should be convenient to also have it in NewPipe.
