Like I said, this is about the RSS feed hygiene. RSS is meant for delivering content updates, not for storing the entire blog content for ages.

Thanks for posting, we actually already fixed that. The RSS Feeds your using are the ones the platform provides out of the box, I can not change how they work. We now use a custom RSS feed i.e:

 

https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/gxcuf89792/plugins/custom/microsoft/o365/custom-blog-rss?board=Windows10Blog&label=&messages=&size=10

I think this will help you no end.

 

Let me know if I have misunderstood something and will be happy to look into it again.
