Since recently been unable to parse Reddit's web feeds (RSS)

[why-not-try-calmer]

import requests
import atoma
response = requests.get("https://www.reddit.com/r/<insert subreddit here>.rss")
decoded = response.content
parsed = atoma.parse_atom_bytes(decoded)

will yield
raise FeedXMLError('Not a valid XML document')
It used to work flawlessly. I'll look into the details I can get when debugging and update this Issue accordingly.

Hi, you should check the status code of the response. It seems that reddit quickly returns 429 errors together with an HTML body, which fails to be parsed.

Salut Nicolas, thank you for keeping a vigilant eye on your issues! I had 200 status codes, however with probably truncated contents due to a way I was sending requests. Your library is very likely not the culprit. Will get back to you when I have time to put my finger exactly on what went wrong. Take care!
