`request` has a CVE and is deprecated, any plans to publish a version that addresses this vulnerability #381

There is a CVE on the request module used by this library https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-p8p7-x288-28g6.

Also the request module is now deprecated - https://www.npmjs.com/package/request.

Is there a plan to update the current library to address the above issues?

It sounds like they are considering deprecating snoowrap while waiting for the major Reddit API update. https://github.com/not-an-aardvark/snoowrap/issues/370

I would like to see the request issue addressed, but maybe there simply isn't the manpower to do so at the moment.
