Description
When I type "RedditPoster." the Atom editor instantly freezes, on Windows I fixed it by using Python 3.5.3 but on Ubuntu when I use the same Python version, it still freezes. Attaching the file for you to see yourself, just write "RedditPoster." on line 56

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by extracting RedditPoster.zip and reproducing the freeze by typing "RedditPoster." on line 56 under Ubuntu with Python 3.5.3. Compare the behavior with the reported Windows setup and observe the CPU usage; done means the autocomplete no longer freezes Atom or drives the CPU to 100%.
