(by the way, thanks for this... much better when we give an alternative, rather than just a "rule 5")

https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/channels yea its kinda overwhelming if u havent used big documentation before

[steel spoke]

Maybe https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/subscriptions/list in particular

[quartz kestrel]

i think it shows only the channels u r subscribed to

might be wrong tho
