  Confirmed feeds are not working because the application is being blocked for making excessive requests to websites for feed content. To resolve this, the application should do the following:

  • Eliminate unnecessary feed requests by waiting for the max-age response header to expire
  • Declare a proper Accept header in its requests

  Contacted the support team to advise them of the issues.
