4. I get an error message: "An error has occured when adding the source - Error: 403"

Expected behavior
Feedburner links should work like other feeds

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 added a pull request for this: #633

Same issue out here.

yeah this is annoying and would love it to be fixed

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

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

If it's any comfort, I have found exactly the same issue with feedburner with a completely different feed reader. I think something in feedburner doesn't like the Sec- security headers.
