Hi David, I suspect this is a fault with the reader, as this hasn't been changed in years. The RSS feeds are built from the full list as that was how some were originally reading them, as opposed to the .json files. I could perhaps reduce them to the last year or last 6 months, or an arbitrary number.
A question for all those who use the RSS feeds, how many entries would you want to see?
