99% of times it's just an error on their end and they eventually come back.
Why: I've created popurls fame back in the days (now hvper.com) and I can tell you that this would be the first prominent case that a major outlet would eventually give up on offering a feed. RSS is alive and kicking and its death is just something the tech community loves to agonize over and over again.
- antpls 6y agoMy experience diverges from yours. Reuters feeds have been highly reliable over the last 3 years for me, with near zero downtime. There were at least one new entry per hour, almost 24h/24, but it can go up to 5 new entries per hour. This is not a small "hiccup", this is a total blackout for almost a day now Meta : HN doesn't let me downvote your comment, that doesn't seem very fair. Edit : I invite everyone to look at webarchive : https://web.archive.org/web/20191029165306/https://www.reuters.com/tools/rss https://web.archive.org/web/20191029165306/https://www.reute... The tools/rss page went offline October 29th 2019, which seems to indicate a planned shutdown of the RSS prepared months ago. Possibly, they delayed the shutdown with covid19 to now
- the_biot 6y agoI created a support ticket with my RSS reader (Newsblur) about this issue concerning you! It appears to be quietly feeding me hvper.com articles from the now non-functional feeds.reuters.com (https://forum.newsblur.com/t/where-did-hvper-news-come-from/8217 https://forum.newsblur.com/t/where-did-hvper-news-come-from/...). I don't supposed you know how this magic could possibly happen?
