Updates September 9: Feed finding
Improvement: Feed finding algorithm
Feed discovery is when you paste a website into the feed reader and it automatically finds the RSS feed. This works by checking meta
tags of the HTML page. If there is a meta
tag that links to an RSS feed, it uses that feed. This works in most cases, but sometimes it doesn't.
Lighthouse now has a more advanced algorithm to find feeds. It checks multiple pages of the website, the sitemap, and much more. Even 3rd party RSS feeds are part of it.
Improvement: Mark as seen button
In the inbox, the Mark as seen
button now shows how many items will be moved to the archive.
Bugfix: Extremely long summaries
In rare cases the summaries and about texts created were extremely long. That doesn't happen anymore.
