FeedFlow users unable to access RSS feeds
-
User reported issue.
-
Confirmed the app is experiencing the following issues, which are causing RSS feeds not to work properly:
- Failing to space out its initial bulk requests causing an excessive amount of requests to be made for feed content all at the same time
- No
Acceptheader present in its requests
-
Issue has been opened at prof18/feed-flow#503 to be resolved by the developer.
-
Reached out to the developer for a resolution.
-
Reached out again to developer.
-
Developer responded that an update has been made that decreases the amount of feed requests being made at one time.
-
Based on the information provided, informed the developer that the update will require its users to wait longer for feed content unnecessarily, and a better alternative would be to use the Cache-Control
max-ageheader to determine the timing and frequency of feed requests. -
Developer responded to implement a more appropriate fix soon.
