Feature or improvement you want

Feeder can detect rss feed which haven't got any update for quite some time and can notify user.

Why should this be added?

Having heavy rss user, many feeds might stop getting new feeds either because the url changed, site shut down, or feed generator broke. A way to know these type feeds can help so that either the error can be corrected or removed permanently.

Screenshots / Drawings / Technical details

Implementation - A period ( i.e mothly, every x days ), feeder will check if feeds haven't got any new feeds for last y numbers of days. example - Scan weekly if feeds didn't get update in last 5 days.

Advanced - Every feed can either use default value (y) or can be custom set. This can act as priority level per feed.

I suggest this feature is included in more general "show errors in feeds" feature.

Other kinds of info can be useful to users:

• feed failed to sync (error)
• feed is stale (warning)
• feed has a new url (warning)

This feature would be great to curate feeds.

Maybe only a screen showing a kind of overview / stats would allow that without being too complex. This screen could list all feeds (ignoring tags) in a table that users could sort. I would suggest the following columns :

• failing to sync or stale (using different icons)
• last updated date,
• last read date
• not really needed but if avalaible new articles frequency could be useful

The screen should allow to long press or multiple select feeds to remove them. I believe it would work great to help to curate feeds you never read.
