RSS Guard users are getting blocked from RSS feeds
-
Confirmed a notable amount of IP addresses being used by the app are being blocked.
-
An issue has been filed for developers to update the app so that it makes requests without tripping RSS feed rate limits or blocks. But a resolution to the issue would only address requests made to the same RSS feed on a single domain. The app needs a solution that will address its excessive number of requests being made at the same time to different RSS feeds that are all on the same domain.
-
We've reached out to the developer to suggest following the guidelines when requesting feed content. This will avoid overloading websites and prevent negatively impacting their performance.
-
A fix for the application making excessive, unnecessary requests to the same feeds for content has been attempted in martinrotter/rssguard#1154. However, the change has not been verified and there is no confirmation of a release.
-
The developer has attempted to implement a fix in martinrotter/rssguard#1322. However, the solution hasn't yet been tested or verified.
-
We've reached out to the developer for more information. An update will be provided once all issues are addressed and verified.
