@benk@kwiecien.us I haven’t actually looked at the original twtxt client, which means the following is ill-conceived speculation, but I believe that it only fetched feeds when you “refreshed”, with a minimum time between feed fetches. Sure, you’ll fetch feed unnecessarily now and then, but not nearly as often as polling every 5 minutes ;)

@ew0k/BW Actually I think the old legacy client only fetched feeds on a command (ie manually) 😆

@david@netbros.com Hmm looks like it 😢
