[BUG]: YT RSS feeds are being received with wrong date about rssguard HOT 4 CLOSED

Yes, this is caused by the fact that RSS Guard is extremely "precise" when it comes to handling incoming RSS articles.

This was already reported many times.

Youtube sometimes erratically changes "updateTime" of some RSS articles when it should not and RSS Guard recognizes this and believes that article was updated but it really was not.

I will try to check if rssguard is not to blame (it likely is not). You can easily solve this behavior with article-filtering feature which allows you to ignore "updated" versions of already saved articles.

First, sorry about opening an issue that was already opened many times, I did a quick search but did not find anything related to that, and it was totally my fault.
And second, thank you very much about this tip, I didn't know about this article-filter feature! Do you have a step-by-step on how to do that anywhere? If not, I can try to figure out myself :)

Applying this article filter and this one separately to YouTube feeds solves this.
