                          I'm writing a program that gets a bunch of images from Librex' API, then opens them in feh.

Here's the source:

    args = sys.argv[1:]
    for i in args:
        if "-" in i:
            args.remove(i)
    sch = quote("+".join(args).replace(" ", "+")).replace("%2B", "+")
    sts = ["librex.extravi.dev", 
        "librex.beparanoid.de", 
        "search.davidovski.xyz", 
        "search.madreyk.xyz", 
        "librex.catalyst.sx"]
    st = random.choice(sts)
    def images(search, site):
        URL = f"https://{site}/api.php?q={search}&p=0&type=1 "
        data = requests.get(url=URL).json()
        imgList = str()
    
        for i in data[:2]:
            imgList += f" {i['thumbnail']}"
        subprocess.Popen(["feh", imgList])
    images(sch, st)

But when I run the final "feh" command with multiple options, I get an error message along the lines of feh WARNING:   https://s2.qwant.com/thumbr/example2  does not exist - skipping

I've tried running feh alone with each link, so it isn't something wrong with the links. But then if I re run feh with all the links, I get the same error.

Is there a way to run feh with multiple URLs?
