Just like to stress that "YouTube fetchers" as I believe the author phrases it, are against YouTube's API terms of service and risk being sent a Cease and Desist letter (as happened in the cases of Groovy and Rythm).

Ok let me explain what I mean by YouTube fetchers.

You can actually fetch new videos from a channel as the videos are uploaded. And it usually comes as a link to the video on youtube.

It could also be in an analytical sense, as a channel owner i can connect with the youtube api to see my analytics in the bot.

I really don't know about groovy so well, but from what I have read, I mean nothing like that in that statement.
