Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of NetNewsWire 6.2.

What's new in this version:

Added:
- Added support for Markdown in RSS via the source:markdown element. When present, the Markdown is rendered as HTML
- Added a dotted underline to links in the Sepia theme, to make links more visible
- Added new setting: you can now enable/disable JavaScript (in the Settings screen)
- Added some special cases where we can and should avoid doing some specific work (such as downloading the home page to find a feed icon)

Fixed:
- Fixed bug where a feed could be read twice on being added
- Fixed bug where the initial download for a new feed didn’t store conditional GET info
- Worked around a server bug where a server would always respond with a 304 when any conditional GET info is sent (the app drops conditional GET info every 8 days)
- Fixed a possible cause of feeds not updating by caching (non-429) 4xx responses for some hours rather than for the duration of the app run
- Fixed a couple Atom parser bugs (one with relative URLs, one with root level author elements)
- Fixed bug where contextual menu in timeline could be slow to appear
- Fixed a possible cause of app icon unread count badge to be out of date
- Fixed bug where timeline text could be truncated early when showing max number of lines in timeline and small text
- Fixed a bug where images that are links could get underlined in the default theme
- Fixed a bug finding a feed in a page that has no body tag
- Fixed bug with some favicons rendering weird, with dark vertical lines. Note: due to caching, the fix may take a few days to take effect
- Improved iCloud error dialog
- Fixed some cosmetic UI glitches
- Removed support for multiple windows
- Made several performance enhancements, most notably in scrolling the timeline
- Improved http/https caching, reducing bandwidth and battery use
