I've recently started using an RSS bot in our wiki's Discord server to log recent changes to a channel, but ran into an issue where some filters specified in Recent Changes don't affect the feed. Despite hidenewpages=1 and hidelog=1 functioning as intended on the Recent Changes page, they don't remove new pages and move/deletion/block logs from the raw feed. I am aware of extensions that add more dedicated activity feeds to a server, but I do not have control over what extensions get installed so they aren't an option.
Currently I've had to specify filters on the bot's side, but since it's filtering by what's in the <description> tags, as that's the best I can do, an edit summary containing the filtered phrases will prevent that change from being posted by the bot, which is obviously not desirable.
For the record, the namespace filter does affect the feed, so surely other filters not doing so is unintentional behaviour, right? This can be observed on any wiki's Recent Changes page, including this one.
