Has The OzBargain RSS Feed Broken?

My feed reader polls https://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/feed every 30 minutes, but it's stopped resolving this afternoon. Do I need to update this URL?

  • Something is broken with our front end CDN (CloudFlare) — I'll need to find a solution/workaround. Meanwhile you can also resubscribe to the correct URL https://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/feed

  • Thanks, that’s working now. Did you find out what was wrong? It’s not often Cloudflare has a hiccup like that, or for that long.

    • What happened was that you were subscribed to an old FeedBurner URL that uses http:// rather than https://. It was fine previously but it appears somewhere in the pipeline (either FeedBurner or CloudFlare) tried to upgrade to https on a service that we did not have certificate for. What I ended up doing is moving the services around, adding a LetsEncrypt cert & it appears to be working now.

      However no one should use that old FeedBurner URL to subscribe to OzBargain feeds. I don't think Google is maintaining FeedBurner either.
