The method level() does not exist on Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Authenticatable. It seems like you code against a sub-type of Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Authenticatable such as Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User.

The parameter $request is not used and could be removed.

        if (!$authors) {

$authors is of type Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection, thus it always evaluated to true.

The expression return view('blog.pages.authors', $data) returns the type Illuminate\View\View which is incompatible with the documented return type Illuminate\Http\Response.

    public function rss(RssFeed $feed)

The type App\Http\Controllers\RssFeed was not found. Maybe you did not declare it correctly or list all dependencies?

    {
        $rss = $feed->getRSS();

        return response($rss)->header('Content-type', 'application/rss+xml');
