I was wondering if there was any way I could grab all of the content creator's channel (that I watch) rss feed from YouTube and make it into one html file to host it on my github pages. I can then go to my rss reader, I use YouTube music and AntennaPod. YouTube music for my iPhone and AntennaPod on android as a backup.

Just wondering if this was possible, but also, I remember seeing a reddit post (or stack overflow) not long ago, like a year ago. A user asked about this and youtube shut that down due to, and I'm taking a guess, its because of this may block ads preventing them from making profit.

I’ve been on basically that exact same journey. I made a little iOS app that uses rss feeds and the iframe player to play videos: Unwatched for YouTube (just released it two weeks ago). It’s also open source, if you have any specific questions let me know.

I'm not completely sure I understand what you want to do, I can share some tips.

With FreshRSS you can get the RSS feed of a youtube channel and receive notifications, but YT only gives you the latests 15 or 20 videos, so you won't get older videos, only newer ones.
From this URL https://www.youtube.com/@rossmanngroup you need to transform it to something like this https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCl2mFZoRqjw_ELax4Yisf6w
You can automate it with an extension in FreshRSS.

Or if you want you can use tubearchivist which will process the channel and download the videos to process them and index them.

Use the following pattern: https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=THE_CHANNEL_ID_HERE

This sounds very similar to the NewPipe app which I use for watching YT. Maybe check out their Github for some inspiration?
