YouTube eliminating support for RSS/Atom

New Post

YouTube is depricating their API v2 and the replacement, v3, does not
support RSS. I follow about 100 different channels through NewsBlur and really don't want to be forced to use whatever interface Google decides is best for me this week. Does anyone have a solution lined up?

I put this together, alarmingly quickly:

It seems to be working well with this feed:

I'll put it up on github shortly if anybody wants. I think I get 50 million API points per day, so it should always be enough, especially if Newsblur respects the channel TTL tag.

Lemme know what you think, feel free to start using it at that URL unless somebody has a better idea!

Thanks again DMack. Just finished transferring all my feeds over to morning-retreat. I could see the feeds dying one by one as I was finishing up the transition. For those not following this thread they may be in for quite a surprise today.
