AttributeError: 'DummySubmission' object has no attribute 'url' on some subreddits

Hello Ethan,

Thank you so much for this great tool. I'd like to report an error I've been receiving while scraping some subreddits.

Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: 'DummySubmission' object has no attribute 'url'

This only happens on some subreddits (e.g. /r/unixporn), and only on submissions after September 06, 2022. I have upgraded voussoirkit to 0.0.74, and have the latest git updates. Thank you once again for fantastic tool.

Hi, thanks for the well written bug report.

I wrote c8c160e00e600b5ee84c26044cbe6855eb96cacf to take the crosspost parent when available, and use a safe getattr fallback otherwise.

Could you give that a try and see if it fixes the issue for you?

Yes, it does fix the issue. Thank you for such a speedy resolution. Greatly appreciate your effort. Thanks again.
