oldreader launches requests although 404 response and unsubscribed feed

klonuo opened this issue · comments

Hi,

this is not related to oldreader-api, but to application itself.

I've made test application that produces feeds couple of days ago and I subscribed through oldreader. Soon after, I unsubscribed the feed from oldreader, and removed my application but I still use same domain for other things.

In my logs I see oldreader makes requests once a day to the feeds no one is subscribed to (and receives 404).

Why is that?

Hello, thank you for reporting.

At the moment that is the way The Old Reader works: we are trying to keep all feeds up-to-date.
We are increasing refresh interval for up to 3 days for invalid (404/etc) feeds.

We will be adjusting this later.
