The comic Non -Sequitur is not updating the past few days...

It looks like the RSS feed is currently up-to-date. Is this still a problem for you?

It started updating again on 2 August after a week of no updates

I don't know what went wrong. I wondered if this was an instance of #128. However, it appears to be a different issue, because the RSS file was updated every day: https://github.com/ArtskydJ/comicsrss.com/commits/gh-pages/rss/nonsequitur.rss

It seems that somewhere between the source code on GitHub and your feed reader, something didn't update. Maybe the gh-pages deploy failed? Maybe some caching issue with your feed reader? Could be that something went wrong on my end that I don't understand?

What feed reader do you use?

I use Feedly. It will sometimes delay updates by several hours but I have never seen it fail to update a feed for several days (several years of use).

I think I remember checking the feed directly on comicsrss.com and seeing that it too was behind. That would be normal for me before I submit an issue like this. But to be honest I am not certain. I cannot rule out feedly being the problem. Though ordinarily all comics I follow from comicsrss.com either work or fail the exact same within feedly (except Dilbert), which is why I thought there might be a problem and submitted this issue.

If this happens again, I can look more carefully at feedly vs comicsrss.com vs the github commit history.

Thank you for providing a wonderful service to all of us who prefer an rss reader for our comics!
