 Replying to [comment:8 Mte90]:
 > Seems a good solution, but this means that we need to open a ticket to
 https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ to do that change that in this way will
 be retrocompatible but all the previous WP will use the other endpoint.

 The "Dashboard Widget" also consumes this feed
 https://planet.wordpress.org/feed/ on line
 https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/master/wp-
 admin/includes/dashboard.php#L1543

 What do you think we try to map exactly the content used by the "Dashboard
 Widget" at first, like:

 News feed: Title, Link, last 5 items only
 Planet feed: Title, Link, Location, Date/Time last 3 items only

 Once we know for sure exactly what the "Dashboard Widget" needs to work
 properly, we open a ticket at Meta to allow a URL to feed only the
 necessary information to that widget, to make it more efficient. The feed
 for the "Dashboard Widget" would probably need to be stored as a dedicated
 transient only for that widget, as opposed to the shared transient with
 the RSS feeds. I think this makes more sense, as the RSS widgets are far
 less used anyway.
