@lyse maybe you both are the bots! :-D That aside---which may, or may not be true, LOL---I agree too.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Alright. 😅
Yeah, don’t waste time on this. I have a vacation coming up and I won’t touch this subject, either. Fuck this shit.
I really like your style of writing, btw. It’s much calmer and less aggressive then mine. :-) When I turned my bullet points into paragraphs, I got a bit mad in the process.
This is like the 32nd iteration of that list and it was much worse in the beginning. 😂

This is also why @bender's Notes feed was unaffected. It's an RSS feed.

Aha, yesterday’s newly added support for LC_TIME to render localized timestamps also broke the feed parsing with my LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 and LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 environment. :-)
Atom feeds make use of RFC 3339 timestamps. They are first converted into RFC 882 timestamp representation, which is the one that RSS feeds use. However, this conversion now results in localized RFC 882 timestamps, which cannot be parsed into Unix timestamp numbers via curl_getdate(…). I bet that it doesn’t know about the localization at all and expects English month and weekday names. Looking at its docs, I reckon that function was selected because of its myriad of supported timestamp formats: https://curl.se/libcurl/c/curl_getdate.html RFC 3339 is not included, though, hence the transformation up front.
The intermediate Item objects in the parser domain use std::string for the timestamp representation. This isn’t all that silly, because Newsboat supports all sorts of different feed formats with different timestamp formats. These RFC 883 timestamps are centrally parsed into time_t.
Speaking of time: It’s time to go to bed after this late bug hunting fun. :-)
