Grayjay has been useful for that. I still follow people on YouTube, but if they setup a channel anywhere else I can switch my feed to draw from those sources instead.

Oh cool! Is there any non-mobile app/service that does something similar?

The source code for GrayJay is available if you're concerned or want to work on a non-mobile app/service yourself, but otherwise I don't know of anything that combines the services like that.
