Research direction
Start by tracing how the Nextcloud News app parses Atom entry authors and how the selected author is passed to the reader display. Reproduce the issue with an entry containing multiple author blocks, then add coverage for the intended author behavior and verify that the reader no longer shows only the last author.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Explain the Problem
Atom 1.0 allows entries to have multiple authors by providing multiple <author></author> blocks. However, when there are multiple authors, the Nextcloud News app only shows the LAST author. The News app should either list all authors, or as a worst case scenario, only provide the FIRST author.
Steps to Reproduce
Create an RSS entry with multiple Authors. Open the post in the Nextcloud News reader and you will see that it says "by Last Author Name".
