### After updating to 4.x all my read articles reappear as unread
We switched to a different feed parsing library which creates article ids differently than before. This means that the same article is not found in the database because it was generated with a different id. This should happen only once after the upgrade and there is no data loss. Unfortunately there is no fix for this since the id is a hash which can not be reversed, so a smooth transition is not possible.
