.text may guess the encoding incorrectly about python-readability HOT 4 OPEN

Oh, thanks. That's a good point.
I'll update README.
Actually, both ways are unreliable, so I think, it is better if developers can choose the best option.
Technically,requests lib can do better guessing sometimes, because it can also access Content-type header. But that field can provide wrong info, and I know it happens sometimes.

So, do you think that requests encoding guessing is reliable?
I think it is not: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44203397/python-requests-get-returns-improperly-decoded-text-instead-of-utf-8

from python-readability.

My point is exactly that guessing is unreliable (and therefore using .content is a better approach)
