Error 403 when adding feedburner.com feeds

Open TheDeviantCrafter opened this issue 1 year ago • 9 comments

Describe the bug When adding any RSS feed hosted on feedburner.com, I get an "error 403" message and the feed is not added.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open settings
  2. Switch to the sources tab
  3. In the add source box add any of the following URLs:
  • https://feeds.feedburner.com/simplyscratch/wPkJ
  • https://feeds.feedburner.com/smittenkitchen
  • https://feeds.feedburner.com/TheHackersNews
  1. I get an error message: "An error has occured when adding the source - Error: 403"

Expected behavior Feedburner links should work like other feeds

Platform (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Windows 10 22H2
  • Version: 1.1.4

This thread claims to have a workaround. I haven't had a chance to try it.

The Reddit workaround does not work. Here's what I did:

  1. Using InoReader, I created a folder containing the first two Feedburner URLs in the main post
  2. Exported that InoReader folder as an OPML file
  3. Imported that OPML file into Fluent Reader

This created 2 error 403 messages:

I have looked a bit into the issue. The app is using the standard fetch function to retrieve the RSS. It should use the net-library provided by electron itself. At least from what I can see.

I also fail to add some rss sources of some journals. Really hope developers can notice this issue image

I'm getting the same issue. I think because of cloudflare image
