I broke my blog's RSS feed and didn't notice because nothing went wrong for me - if you do, how do you monitor your site's RSS feed to make sure it's working/valid?
The breakage itself was strange - it looks like a daily version of RStudio was overriding some {cli} options when knitting Rmds despite setting them manually inline so my most recent posts had ansi control characters in them which didn't pass a validator. It didn't seem to be because of a dependency, and updating RStudio fixed it.
