Hi, I found a weired issue.
rss-parser does not fetch feed that is hosted github.io with Firefox, but no problem with Chrome.
github.io responds
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
as expected.The cause was that Firefox was sending a CORS preflight request.
There are several conditions for sending a preflight request, one of which is User-Agent changing.

I think many people will be bothered by this issue, so
I recommend not to set User-Agent by default.
