With NNW 6.1.4 on an iMac running macOS 14.1.1 I get [Bad Request] when I try to delete feeds.

Common dislikes about NetNewsWire app

- No headers shown between days to easily see when advancing to previous day's content

- Switching between Today section and All Unread can be annoying

- Little evolution in app/workflow since its release

- Lacks features such as category views, device feed sharing, newspaper style view, duplicate elimination/aggregation, recommended feeds, auto category forward, and auto-read

- Swipe direction for archive/delete/dismiss/mark-as-read is backwards compared to other apps

- Buttons for organizing categories are awful and ultra-sensitive, leading to accidental deletion of categories without confirmation
