  I am having this problem again, the last WordPress.com News post to show in my WordPress.com Reader was:

  30 Poems, 30 Days: NaPoWriMo Has Begun

  That post is three days old, so the latest posts (there have been four posts since then so far), are not showing; so once again I did not know about the latest theme until I came across it by accident when browsing themes.

  Thanks for letting us know!

  For now, you can adjust the subscription to send you new posts as emails via http://wordpress.com/#!/read/edit/

  You are welcome, I will try that, but remember that I used to sometimes get a delay even on emails (sometimes hours, day, days, et cetera before I would even get an email of new posts for WordPress.com News); but I will try it again. ;)

  We don’t send out emails all at once for the popular blogs, so there may be a delay of a few hours, but at least you’ll get them. :)

  That email alert delay seems to only happen with WordPress.com News for me, but yeah I do usually get the emails at some point; even if it takes a day or two.

  I did not get any email alerts yet, but the last few missing WordPress.com News posts just magically appeared in my WordPress.com Reader.

  Yep, we’re working on this, so they might come and go for a bit. :)

  I just click this link http://blog.wordpress.com/ rather than subscribing.

  This should be all fixed up now. Can you still see the latest posts in your Reader?

  I think that this problem is happening again Macmanx :D , this time I got an email alert of the latest WordPress.com News post on time (Greater Security with Two Step Authentication), but this post is not showing up in my WordPress.com Reader (Even over a hour later after refreshing the page several times/et cetera); and as usual this is only happening with WordPress.com News, not with anything else that I am following with the WordPress.com Reader.

  Have you figured out what causes this problem yet Macmanx?

  Not yet, our folks are still looking into it.

  So how is progress going on this issue, did you learn anything about what is still causing this problem and/or what the problem is exactly Macmanx?

  I did not get an email alert for the next to last WordPress.com News post (Save the Date: WordCamp San Francisco) even a day or two later so I unsubscribed/un-followed from WordPress.com News, I am not sure if this would have happened on the newest post (The WordPress for Android App Gets a Big Facelift) as well or not, either way I am now using the WordPress.com Dashboard Home once again like I used to in the past to see the latest WordPress.com News posts instead of following/subscribing to WordPress.com News until this issue(s) is(are) fixed one day if ever. ;)

  Hm, this should have been fixed. Back to it, I guess.
