• It's recommened to take newsdb.json with you if you're porting the project to another host to prevent redundant news posts.
• It is not guranteed that it can trace multiple new news posts of the same type since it only traces the last post posted. In-order to avoid such error, you can lower the news feed refresh rate as specified previously. If you have a idea on how to improve it then feel free to contribute.
