No feed updates

The feeds haven’t been updated for a week.

I’m getting an error message.

[2026-07-06 23:30:55] The Old Reader — Sending article status: HTTP 404: not found (RSWeb.WebserviceError 0) (Account/ReaderAPIAccountDelegate.swift:sendArticleStatusReturningCount(for:):222)

The problem has nothing to do with my Wi-Fi network. It also happens when I switch to cellular data.

If no one here can help me fix this problem, I’ll switch to a different RSS feed reader.

I’m looking into to it first to see if it’s a bug in NetNewsWire.

Are you on Mac or iOS?

Regardless of Mac or iOS, here’s what to do:

  1. Go to The Old Reader in your browser and make sure everything is in the state you want it to be in.
  2. Open NetNewsWire. Delete the account from NetNewsWire. (Don’t just deactivate — delete. This will remove the storage from disk.)
  3. Add your The Old Reader account to NetNewsWire.

That should do the trick.

(In the meantime, I’ve identified the bug that caused this, and the fix will be in the next version, so this problem shouldn’t come up again.)

I use NetNewsWire on iPad with iPadOS.
