I’m new to rss, I’m trying to figure out if there’s a way to fetch all old articles from a website not just the latest 10 or 20. Is there a way to do this? Or this something that websites control? And if so, does this mean that fetched articles will be deleted after website publishes new ones?

    As far as I understand it, the website controls what and how content is shared through RSS. So, RSS is not considered a way to archive content.

    ON my blog for example, I have yet to figure out how to share the full content of the posts through RSS (I’m not that much of geek and, well, I just can’t figure out how to ask my website generator, Hugo, to do that). So, for the time being all what my readers have access to is the summary and I don’t think they can force change that and access the whole post through RSS.

    Curious to see if anyone as more info on your question.
