Research direction

Start by tracing the web-feed addition flow in the Swift macOS and iOS app, focusing on where the URL is checked, the feed is fetched, and the feed is stored. Done means a duplicate URL is rejected before any feed retrieval begins; verify that new URLs still proceed through the existing flow.

Description

feed adding

When you duplicate url while adding web feed, it actually start spending time in getting the feed first and then detecting the duplicate before storing. It would be nice if it can check for duplicate first before proceeding.
