I created a recipe for scroll.in.

It is working, in the sense that it is creating a proper magazing which is readable on Kindle.

However, in the recipe, I have put 20 sections. I get a permanent redirect error in 10 of those sections. The following error message:

URL:  https://scroll.in/food
<httperror_seek_wrapper (urllib.error.HTTPError instance) at 0x6208928 whose wrapped object = <HTTPError 308: 'PERMANENT REDIRECT'>>

But when I run the exact same code using requests library in a regular Python script, it is able to fetch all sections. Can anyone help me resolve this?

Here's the full code:
