This is a great idea. I also wanted to create a platform like this one however allow people to sync their list of subscribed channels from YouTube.

As you know, the subscriptions feed is now optimized on YouTube and not all new content from your subscribed channels find their way into your feed anymore.

This platform that I was thinking would basically bring that back, however under a different domain with a better UI.

Anyone interested? Let's build it together. Or just bring that feature into this site. I just want a feed that's chronological and non-optimized.

I made a simple version of this as a command line program that can subscribe to channels and generate a html page with chronological video thumbnail links, no server/syncing though : https://github.com/dxwc/vidlist
My subscriber feed is chronological actually. Are you sure yours is not?

Source? Wasn't that just an experiment?

Indeed, there's a separate feed for subscriptions and it works exactly as expected. I don't see the issue here.
