Try the XDA article API

Returns one XDA article by its `url`, which must be a `www.xda-developers.com/<slug>/` link; section hubs, author pages and the bare `xda-developers.com` host are rejected. The response has the title, description, times, section, authors, lead image and body `paragraphs`. `paywalled` is set to `true` only if the page declares the article not free.
