Certain feeds always think they were posted recently

[omgitsraven]

Describe the bug Certain RSS feeds that I follow are listed in Handy News Reader as though all of their years-old posts were always posted only a few days ago. I can mark them as read, but once the "articles preservation time" has elapsed, they all reappear as new posts again.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Add a new feed for any (or all) of these addresses:
   • https://www.mattkeeter.com/atom.xml
   • https://midlifecrisisoptional.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
   • https://s3unlocked.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
2. Go to the "unread" view
3. Note that the dates on the articles that appear all seem suspiciously recent (and the dates don't correspond with the dates listed on the actual pages)
4. Mark them all as read
5. Wait for the duration of time listed in "articles preservation time" in the Handy News Reader "article refresh" settings (i.e. one month)
6. Go to the "unread" view
7. All those same articles now reappear, with a more recent date associated

Expected behavior Articles should have their actual post date associated, or at least, should not keep reappearing every month.

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+
• OS: Android 13, One UI 5.1.1
• Version 0.19.7
