About NetNewsWire
NetNewsWire spent 7.1.3 rebuilding Feedly sync, and is now polishing the result.
The 7.1.3 cycle was dominated by one thing: a Feedly syncing overhaul that stopped users getting rate-limited into temporary bans, fixed a mark-as-read backlog that could grow without bound, and repaired a long list of folder and feed corruption bugs. With that shipped on Mac, the work has dropped to single-fix betas and a 7.1.4 build on iOS carrying no release notes yet.
