When using the "Show all" feature, an RSS feed that does not belong to a specific category appears in that category

In the world of RSS feeds and news aggregation, categorization is a crucial aspect of organizing and managing feeds. However, a peculiar issue has been reported where an RSS feed that does not belong to a specific category appears in that category when using the "Show all" feature. This article delves into the details of this issue, providing a comprehensive understanding of the problem and its implications.

The bug in question was reported by a user who had previously subscribed to the WIRED feed but had since unsubscribed. Despite this, when using the "Show all" feature, the WIRED feed appeared in a certain category. This feed might have been stored in the same location before, and when the user tried to move it to another view, it remained in the original category.

The feed in question is the WIRED feed, which can be accessed at https://www.wired.com/feed/rss. This feed is a popular source of news and information on technology, science, and culture.

To better understand the issue, two reproduction videos have been provided. These videos demonstrate the steps taken by the user to reproduce the bug and provide a visual representation of the problem.

Unfortunately, there is no information available on the environment in which the bug was reported. This information is crucial in understanding the context in which the bug occurred and in reproducing the issue.

To ensure that the issue is not a duplicate and that it is a concrete bug, the following validations were performed:

Check for duplicate issues: A search was conducted to determine if there were any existing issues that reported the same bug. No duplicates were found.
Verify the bug is concrete: The issue was verified to be a concrete bug, rather than a question or discussion. This ensures that the issue is a specific problem that requires a solution.
Validate the issue: The issue was validated to ensure that it is a legitimate problem that requires attention.

The user who reported the bug has indicated their willingness to contribute to the solution of the issue. Specifically, they have expressed a willingness to submit a pull request (PR) to fix the issue. This demonstrates a commitment to helping resolve the problem and ensuring that the issue is addressed.

In conclusion, the issue of an RSS feed appearing in a category it does not belong to when using the "Show all" feature is a legitimate problem that requires attention. By understanding the details of the bug, including the feed information, reproduction video, and environment, we can work towards a solution. The user's willingness to contribute to the solution is a positive step towards resolving the issue and ensuring that the problem is addressed.
