There's unnecessary JavaScript in there that will cause issues with some parsers.
 
Thank you for reporting this issue, it has now been resolved. We are aiming to include any changes that have been made in a future XF release (2.2.6).

Change log:
Disable lightbox related output in RSS feeds.
There may be a delay before changes are rolled out to the XenForo Community.
