Pedals should always be chained in alphabetical order. To be honest it sounds like crap but helps calm my OCD.
Personally I would go -
I must admit, that did make me chuckle...
It's well worth experimenting as much as possible before finalising anything, especially with the dirt pedals where order makes the most difference.

Tuner
Wah
Chorus
Distortion
Distortion
Distortion
Etc
Until you've ran out of distortion. Then you can hit the distortion channel of the amp (the other one is boring).
If you're feeling mental, put a delay in there somewhere.
I actually have my TU-2 as the last pedal before the amp - with all the modulation in the FX loop - on my main board... it just sounds best like that.

the correct order is
guitar-pedal-pedal-pedal (etc) - amp
and in the fx loop
amp send-pedal-pedal (etc)- amp return
It really doesn't matter what goes where*, other than drive/distortion should not go in the amps fx loop, it could cause damage.
*so long as it sounds good
For the record, on my big home board I have chorus/phase/flange before my drive pedals, and delay in the FX loop

I think the reason mine sounds good at the end of the front chain is that it's a good buffer for driving the cable to the amp.

you mean CDO don't you?

I have Joyo Ultimate Drive.
Delay > reverb > delay
It helps to create some interesting sounds
