Random 403 Forbidden errors continue, unfortunately.

I'm not seeing that happen with (or without) use_archiveofourown_gay:true and user/pass set under [archiveofourown.org]. I couldn't try your exact URL because you didn't include it.

Sadly, I don't know any now more than any other time it's come up:

Yay! I also saw this error (find links from a non-story AO3 page not working). Figured something changed somewhere/somewhen but had not dug into. will try at some point with current test version.

The weird thing is that, yes, when I try to download from URLs the 'normal' way, I get some random 403 errors (but I did notice that those nearly always fall on locked fics), but when I try to use the 'Get Story URLs From Web Page' function to download series, I systematically get a 403 error for https://archiveofourown.gay/users/login. I didn't put a URL because I get this error for every series URL I've tried. Never for the series URL itself, for the '...users/login' one.

Could it be that archiveofourown.gay doesn't allow login anymore? I can't use Calibre right now, but should I try to comment out my login&password with archiveofourown.gay?

Due to AO3 hiding locked stories in series(etc) pages, FFF automatically attempts to login for AO3(all OTW) for 'Get Story URLs From Web Page' if you have a username setting. You can comment out username to prevent that.

use_archiveofourown_gay:true login worked for me yesterday, so it's not a general failure. I assume it's different levels of blocking for whatever random reason some AI hallucinated at this point.

We did have some one yesterday report updating to latest Calibre helped them.

I added my "reboot the modem" advice to the Problematic Sites page yesterday, for what its worth.
