I don't know if it's just me, but with v2.1.2, I've been getting SSL errors on Fictionpress and Fanfiction.net, e.g.:
Code:
Bad
An Unlikely Magical Girl and an Unlikely World War
Kilopi505
<urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:581)>
https://www.fictionpress.com/s/3189505/1/
In my browser I can access the https versions of the sites and log in without issue, so there doesn't seem to be a problem with their certificates.
