Extract Youtube Subscriptions for Pages #1176

Closed NWuensche closed 6 months ago

NWuensche commented 6 months ago

In this PR, I added a way to get the subscription count for pages. Right now, "sometimes" when I open a youtube channel, it's type is "Page" and therefore no subscription count is displayed. However, one can extrat the subscription count from the metaData for pages.

With "sometimes", I mean that there seems to be a 25% change that when I open a youtube channel in the app, it's type is page. I haven't found any understandable ways on when this happens, it seems random to me. It can even happen that a channel that is not a page becomes a page when I restart the app.

Thanks, but this should be already fixed by #1170, in a more dynamic and safer way than yours. Closing you pull request due to this reason.
