Over the last two weeks or so the retrieval speed of NewsBlur has occasionally slowed to a crawl as the blue bar continues to blink at a slower than normal rate. (As opposed to the fast blinking blue bar and lightning fast speed I have become used to in the last year.)
This makes reading stories so much slower that I am unable to make a dent in the number of total unread stories as feeds accumulate stories faster than I can read them.
In addition, send by email takes multiple attempts before it actually completes.
