Same here, but built from source.

I didnt expect people to still be using this haha! I'll try to reproduce the bug and fix it. Sorry for being VERY late i didn't pay much attention to this project

Fixed! It turns out the requests were getting blocked by reddit. Not a problem with user agents or headers or anything, this behavior is only found for the net/http golang client (i tested with curl, python requests, and reqbin). I ended up applying a workaround i found at https://www.reddit.com/r/redditdev/comments/uncu00/go_golang_clients_getting_403_blocked_responses/ and it now works! I will pay more attention to that project from now on.

P.S since the fix is for a very major bug i applied it to the latest release.
