Devianart RSS is broken, tested on ubuntu and manjaro.

What exactly are you trying to do? Please provide steps to reproduce. It works for me with the example links here: https://www.deviantart.com/developers/rss

Sorry if I am necroposting, but I have also been trying to use Deviant Art with variety and haven't been able to get it to work.

So I have pasted this example URL from the deviantart.com web site above - https://backend.deviantart.com/rss.xml?type=deviation&q=boost%3Apopular+in%3Adigitalart%2Fdrawings+frogs - into the variety MediaRSS dialog and then set that as the only wallpaper source in variety.

An hour or so later, the previous wallpaper, from wallhaven.cc, is still my desktop wallpaper. If I click on the variety tray icon and choose "Next" or "Image->Next", I get a "No more wallpapers" error. In the MediaRSS download folder - ~/.config/variety/Downloaded/mediarss_backend_deviantart_com_rss_xml_type_deviation_q_boost_3Apopular_in_3Adigitalart_2Fdrawings_frogs/ - there are no images, just one file: state.json, that contains: {"last_download_failure": 1690413275.8179405}
