"xmlParseEntityRef: no name" on API request to proxy/featured
My browser / operating system: Linux, Chrome 80.0.3987.163, No Flash version detected
^ though that's all completely irrelevant as this isn't an error on my part
I'm using the Scratch REST API, and every time I make a request to the proxy/users/id/featured endpoint I get an error with the XML:

ST, can we get a fix for this?

It seems like that page doesn't exist. You need to use /users/username/following/users/projects. /users/username/following/users/loves or /users/username/following/studios/projects depending on what you need.

"xmlParseEntityRef: no name" on API request to proxy/featured
If it doesn't exist, then why isn't it giving me a 404 instead of an XML error? Also, why is that endpoint listed in the API docs?

That page is 404 error: try viewing the source. Also the page is probably outdated (especially for APIs that require authentication, like that)
