Based on my research, entries included the Atom feed generated by Plume doesn't include any atom:id and atom:published elements.

While published is optional, atom:id looks mandatory in the specification and its absence is likely to confuse feed readers.

In a personal projects of mine, I am aggregating multiple Plume feeds, and the absence of the published value means it's impossible to order the entries by date after aggregation.

Example from https://plume.social/@/Aster@amplifi.casa:


<feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">
    <title>Aster</title>
    <id>https://plume.social/@/Aster@amplifi.casa/atom.xml</id>
    <updated></updated>
    <entry>
        <title><![CDATA[Eu também ignorei essas coisas no começo]]></title>
        <id></id>
        <updated></updated>
        <author>
            <name>Aster</name>
            <uri>https://amplifi.casa/@/Aster/</uri>
        </author>
        <link href="https://amplifi.casa/~/Asterismos/eu-também-ignorei-essas-coisas-no-começo/" rel="alternate"/>
        <content type="html" src="https://amplifi.casa/~/Asterismos/eu-também-ignorei-essas-coisas-no-começo/">REMOVED</content>
    </entry>
</feed>

As you can see:

id is empty
updated is empty
published is missing

THere are probably a few more fields that are available in the spec you may want to include, like summary, rights or category (to indicate what blog the entry is coming from?)

Based on my research, entries included the Atom feed generated by Plume doesn't include any `atom:id` and `atom:published` elements. While `published` is optional, `atom:id` looks mandatory in the [specification](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4287#section-4.2.9) and its absence is likely to confuse feed readers.

(sorry, for the delay) Yes it is, and there is a similar one in src/routes/blogs.rs IIRC.

This is very likely why I can't have my new fediverse.blog blog on Planet GNOME: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Infrastructure/planet-web/merge_requests/32.

The issue is partially fixed by the now merged PR #720.

Currently, there is no data structure to fetch updated status for a blog post. This issue is, for now, blocked by #722.

@KitaitiMakoto after your work on #764, do you think there is something more to do to resolve this issue ?
