Feature description

When subscribing to a channel, add checkboxes/toggles:

• Regular videos
• Live streams
• Shorts

Why do you want this feature?

There are often cases when you want only specifc types of content from a channel, e. g.:

• You don’t like it enough to watch the long-form videos, but the shorts are fun
• You watch their long-form videos, but the shorts are just clips from them for promotion
• You like their regular videos, but the live streams are boring/annoying
• You use their live streams as background and aren’t interested in anything else

And it would be a more pleasant experience without the need to filter out all the noise visually.

BTW, #10676 doesn’t really solve this because you still have to filter, now in several tabs. Plus, it’s nice to have a clean flat list of new videos, without the extra complexity of separate categories.

There are some (bad) channels that make a lot of shorts from their regular video. This is annoying and spams the feed.
Having a toggle for disable shorts per subscription will be really awesome!
