badger badger Blocked because of go-reddit and golang changes

[DaleEMoore]

Howdy All y'all,

I'm looking for a little help in how to avoid the "badger badger" or "Blocked" issue that comes when using a golang version > 16 with go-reddit. Here is some background information:

• https://www.slurdge.org/post/2022-05-13-the-strange-case-of-golang-reddit-rss/
• https://www.reddit.com/r/redditdev/comments/uncu00/go_golang_clients_getting_403_blocked_responses/

I'm hoping that someone will lend me a hand crafting my normal call to this API:

sr, _, err := reddit.DefaultClient().Subreddit.Get(ctx, subreddit)

and turn off TLS.

Any help you can provide is very much appreciated!

Perhaps someone has thoughts about a good approach to making this

sr, _, err := reddit.DefaultClient().Subreddit.Get(ctx, subreddit)

have TLS turned off?

This solved my problem:

    var subreddit = "UpliftingNews"
    noTLS := reddit.WithHTTPClient(&http.Client{
        Transport: &http.Transport{
            TLSClientConfig: &tls.Config{},
        },
    })
    cl, err := reddit.NewReadonlyClient(noTLS)
    if err != nil {
        log.Println("NewClient err", err)
    }
    sr, re, err := cl.Subreddit.Get(ctx, subreddit)
    if err != nil {
        log.Println("Subreddit.Get err", err)
    }
