Feed Item

The type property always returns all types, regardless of version. However, not all types are valid with all versions. Use the attachment property to verify the type of feed item. For example, for a type of PollPost, if the version is earlier than 26.0, attachment is null. Use the text property to properly render any unknown feed item types.
