I don’t know about other platforms, but YouTube membership is totally implementable on any other platform.
The workflow anyone need to implement is the same flow Discord has implemented:
mine
filter on channels.list end point. This way the service can know SomeOneWatching is owner of channel UC1234ABCDfilterByMemberChannelId
on the same members.list end point.Source: I’ve worked in YouTube adjacent company using all of their public and several proprietary APIs for around 10 years now. I’m fairly familiar with their API offerings.
That's good to know, i thought it was be some kind of exclusive deal between the two entities.
Of course, convincing people to get off Discord when almost everyone already have an account, a desktop app and a phone app ready to go sounds like a hurdle, but with time and enough enshittification™ anything is possible!
