Repeated output of same articles #53

I've added this feed and it seems both http and rdbms output keep repeating the same entries over and over on every interval.

This feed is updating constantly the entry update date. Even if the entry is not updated!?! They should update the feed date but not the entry.

Switching to the RSS feed should fix this : https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/rss.xml

Ah, sorry that it was the feed that is behaving weird... and thanks for finding out the RSS version works fine.

Hello @ncarlier. Thanks for this awesome project. I am facing the same problem. I need to monitor a feed, https://www.ptt.cc/atom/Lifeismoney.xml How to ignore the <updated> tag and make the <published> tag as the only time reference?

Switching to the RSS feed should fix this : https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/rss.xml

not every rss source has another fixed version.. Is there any workaround?

The (Atom specification)[https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/atom.html] is very specific about this element:

I only see these workarounds:
