Research direction

Start with database/worknotes.md, which contains the available implementation notes for the FeedLand and FeedLandDatabase release. The issue describes an already deployed nightly deletion feature rather than a specific change or test; no newcomer-ready definition of done is provided.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

A new feature in feedland + feedlanddatabase versions 0.7.15 + 0.8.8.

Two new settings -- config.flDeleteOldItems, default false and config.ctDaysToKeep, default 365.

If enabled when FeedLand runs its nightly tasks it will delete all items older than ctDaysToKeep..

See worknotes for more info.

Unless you're helping test FeedLand, I recommend waiting a bit and let us burn this in our the main servers. It's running now on feedland.org and feedland.social. If all goes well we'll install it on feedland.com shortly.
