Update: Not only does this still exist, but today there was a new case of invalid characters occurring, which even made your own news feed choke: `<3`. It was written plainly into the website’s HTML, which browsers will tolerate, even though it’s broken (screenshot 1, source code of [New Pet – – Gems of War](https://gemsofwar.com/new-pet-2/)) `//edit ironic side note: even the forum preview of the link chokes on the proper title...`

and in the feed, fetched from [Gems of War](https://gemsofwar.com/feed/), it is completeley scrubbed from existence, screenshot 2, title of the feed, `&#8211;` is a dash:

expected contents: `<title>New Pet &#8211; &lt;3 (Nintendo Switch)</title>`

In total, the news feed is chopped off at the invalid character, so you can’t even see whether this is PC or Switch news.

Cheers, Gary.
