v3.0.0 Release is here!

FeedCord is back in active development!

This release is focused on stability, performance, and user flexibility.

Highlights

• Refactoring & Improved Architecture
• Major portions of the codebase have been revamped for better readability and maintainability. This sets the stage for future feature development. Special thanks to @xavier-hernandez for the pull request and paving the start of it!

Enhanced Request Handling & Retries

• User-Agent Cycling for failed GET requests, reducing the chance of being blocked by certain RSS or web endpoints.
• Multiple Retry Attempts on retrieving images or RSS items, ensuring more reliable fetching even under poor network conditions.
• Better Parsing of RSS Items to handle diverse RSS feed formats with improved error tolerance.

Additional Properties

For those upgrading from 2.x, please check the new file structure. in v3, a bare bones config file looks like this:

{
	"Instances": [
	  {
		"Id": "My First News Feed",
		"YoutubeUrls": [
		  ""
		],
		"RssUrls": [
		  ""
		],
		"Forum": false,
		"DiscordWebhookUrl": "...",
		"RssCheckIntervalMinutes": 25,
		"EnableAutoRemove": false,
		"Color": 8411391,
		"DescriptionLimit": 250,
		"MarkdownFormat": false,
		"PersistenceOnShutdown": true
	  }
	],
	"ConcurrentRequests": 40
  }

• ConcurrentRequests - How many concurrent HTTP requests all FeedCord instances can have going at one time.
• MarkdownFormat - markdown styled posts if set to true
• PersistenceOnShutdown - local file write on restart/stop to save last run dates. This allows for posting any missed items while FeedCord was stopped or restarted if set to true
