Is there a RSS generator for Facebook pages as well? Will this support Facebook pages later on?
You can create Facebook (and Instagram, Twitter) feeds with Feedity - https://feedity.com

#62This looks great!
* Shameless plug *: Our little startup, Feedity - https://feedity.com, helps create custom RSS feeds for any webpage, even social networks (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter), via an online feed builder and REST API.

Simple: - most RSS readers suck so bad you can't even retrieve years old articles. So if you follow blogs that don't post often, you simply can NOT get any of their older posts. Imagine a blog that has one seriously good article once a month. Typically you can't get more than a year's worth of posts, so that's like 12 articles. Why? - the best RSS app I had on iPad let me archive feeds for a LONG time. I used it as a…

This seems like the sort of thing that should be in the spec for a feed. RSS is basically a textual representation of a site's available articles; you have to explicitly GET the feed to see any new posts (at least without PubSub). If you're going to provide a static xml representation of your site's content, there's no obvious reason why you wouldn't want that to extend back indefinitely.
Something like feed.xml?page=2 seems fairly sane.

By looking into Podlove[1] I stumbled onto a specification[2] by the IETF for just that. It doesn't seem to have much support though, neither on the feed creator, nor the client side.

YouTube channel feeds, if they have one, are at: www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id={channel_id} Some channels have a custom url and the id isn't obvious but it should be in the page source somewhere. For example, "It's Okay To Be Smart" is at "www.youtube.com/user/itsokaytobesmart". Right click, view page source, search for "/channel/". That finds " "" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH4BNI0…
I'm not sure what the relationship between channels and users is. I think it's many-to-many and I'm aware of 3 feed types: https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?user= https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id= https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?playlist_id= Would love to hear if there are more.
Woah, I spent more time than I care to admit trying to find some feeds. I thought I had the secret sauce all figured out :) https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?user=itsokaytobesma... is much easier to use. I can think of a few channels where the play list thing will come in handy if it works. Gamers where I only want to see 1 out of 50 games they play and are who are orginized enough to keep seperate playlist is one example. You can't even do that with YouTubes own subscription method as far as I know.
