  • NetNewsWire was not updating my RSS feed

    NetNewsWire is having trouble refreshing my RSS feed, both on Mac desktop (6.1.8) and iOS (6.1.5 Build 6135).

    • I tested with an alternative RSS reader: Unread, which updates the feed fine.
    • I double checked my caching and expiration headers, which also appear ok.
    • I went through the log files and saw many entries for Unread and some for Google bot (hello 👋)
    • I removed the feed from NNW and re-added it, but no success…

    I’m tempted to try and build the desktop app from source, since the source is available on Github, but that will require some extra free time.

    UPDATE 2025.01.02: I installed the TestFlight build (6.1.6 6141) and the issue persists.

    UPDATE 2025.01.03: TestFlight build 6.1.6 6142 installed overnight and the issue is fixed 🎉! Now waiting for the next desktop release.
