requests.exceptions.JSONDecodeError

[mcilrain]

I tried following the readme but got this error when doing the download-tags part after supplying username and API key (which isn't mentioned in the readme), occurs on both Linux (Python 3.9) and Windows (Python 3.8):

Start downloading tags ... (limit:10000, minimum_post_count:500)
general tags are downloading ...
Traceback (most recent call last):

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Danbooru's cloudfront changes its behaviour. I fixed it, try latest revision. Also changed README.md too.
