Generating FTRSS-Links

1. In the ZIP, extract the Subs.csv (under Takeout/YOutube and Youtube Music/Subscriptions) and place it in the yt-subs-to-ftrss-folder
2. Run the "exporter"-file
3. When prompted, insert your FTRSS-Domain (e. g. ftrss.mydomain.com or the address to any of the public instances, but then the articles per feed might need to be adjusted)
4. A list of FTRSS-Links will be saved to a file "feedlinks"
