Post Body

I saw that some API stuff changed, but did RSS change too? Do I need to authenticate in some way from my bot?

Just going to https://www.reddit.com/r/redditdev/new/.rss in a web browser works (even in inprivate / incognito), so I'm thinking it's not related to authentication

EDIT - Nevermind, I fixed it. If anyone is having the same trouble, go to https://www.whatismybrowser.com/detect/what-http-headers-is-my-browser-sending and add all of those HTTP headers to the request your bot / etc is making. Apparently they added some kind of new HTTP header check, and it returns 403 if you don't have headers that make you look like a real browser.
