Reddit RSS feeds recent rate limiting and solution

Reddit recently implemented severe rate limiting on RSS feeds, reducing the limit from 100 updates per 10 minutes to just 1 update per minute, causing HTTP 429 errors for users with multiple subscriptions. The author discovered a workaround by adding user= and feed= parameters (obtained from Reddit's RSS preferences) to RSS feed URLs, which restores access to both public and private feeds. This change appears connected to Reddit's broader effort to deprecate unauthenticated access and reduce scraping, though no official announcement was made.
