    It seems to skip articles now and then for no apparent reason. I noticed that behaviour when reading web comics, getting confused because of missing pages. The articles show up in the feed preview but that's it. I found no way to have it download an article once it has been skipped. The only fix is deleting the feed and adding it again ... until it skips one the next time.

    Without the feed URL it's a bit hard to troubleshoot this but Feedbro 4.5.0 now properly handles XML feeds that are in "oldest first" order which might have caused this in certain situations.

    Edit (2020-07-29): another thing we noticed (and is fixed in 4.5.1 which is soon available) is that Firefox has a bug in Date object parsing when the year is expressed with just two digits. For example this string "Mon, 31 Aug 20 13:00:28 +0200" was parsed by Firefox JavaScript Date object as Wed Aug 20 2031 14:00:28 GMT+0300. This worked fine on Chromium-based browsers which made it hard to spot. This is also a likely reason for those skipped articles.

    Of course, it would be have been a lot quicker to track down with a feed URL to test with. So for everyone else as well: if you think there's a bug somewhere, please include a feed URL that we can test it with.

    Installed to replace the gone native feedreader.
    In one word: yuck.
