Description

Command

Fair warning: These imgur links are NSFW, open at your discretion.

Works (https://i.imgur.com/N1nyc6i.gifv):
bdfr download ./test -v -l 15mb93a

bdfr download ./test -v -l 15mb2df

Environment (please complete the following information)

Just saying, both links don't work anymore.

This is still an issue. When attempting to download this post: nsfw nudity, bdfr uses this link: and fails, looks like it's requesting authorization for access to the imgur api.

The first link (working at time of post) will probably be removed eventually as imgur doesn't allow nsfw anymore, I believe. Still, there are endless examples popping up everyday. There's a working link and it's not grabbing it correctly by trying to use the imgur api.

Hi, do you have a current example of this?
