This is, just like the failure to link to a stylesheet in the feed, IMO a failure on the publisher's part. The feed should support pagination with the appropriate rel=next links in the feed. WordPress is interesting in that it supports pagination through a URL parameter (e.g. ?paged=2), but it doesn't actually advertise them...
- beagle3 5y agoIndeed, but it is what it is. You can either use Thunderbird and miss updates, or use a continuous server based solution and receive all of them. I’m a 4-year happy paying customer of NewsBlur, which I wholeheartedly recommend.
- pwdisswordfish8 5y ago> You can either use Thunderbird and miss updates Not true; maybe I wasn't clear enough in my last comment. As an example, for platforms like WordPress that support pagination, if you miss some updates that were posted to alice.example.net/feed/, then you can add alice.example.net/feed/?paged=2 (and ?paged=3 and so on) to Thunderbird until it bridges the gap between items you had before going dark and what you have now. It works for accessing a blog's backlog of content, too; it's possible to discover a blog today with regular (let's say weekly) updates stretching back e.g. 8 months and still get at the old ones. In fact, I've done this to go back and ingest years of posts after first discovering a feed only recently and then realizing that I've been missing out by not having it on my radar since the beginning.
