Hi,

I just started using RSSOwlnix.
When importing, I often have the option to choose between "Feed Name" and "Feed Name (2.0)".
I'm considering the "Feed Name" without (2.0) should be (1.0).
Which of those feeds types are recommended to import and are expected to work better with RSSOwlnix?

Thank you!
Carlos

I compared the RSS files of some websites, and didn't notice diferences in content between '2.0' and without this label in the feed name (which I suppose is 1.0).

Actually, what I found interesting is that having both RSS feeds, reading from one syncs the 'mark read' to the other (screen-recording below).

If this 'sync' mark read is happening, it sounds the content is exactly duplicated, right?

RSS 1 0 vs 2 0

sync is probably due to the same link. i ment to compare the rss directly (view it directly in browser or save it as file). the rss version is also at the top of the source file.
