ah, rate limits. something twitter was absolutely blasted for but makes sense here because we love lemmy :) even though it serves the same purpose.
Probably because Twitter is big, and LemmyWorld is small and also the fact that the rate limits are probably reasonable in LemmyWorld, compared to twitter.
There is nothing in theory wrong with a rate limit as long as its not set so absurdly low or to such a long amount of time as to impact actual users. The problem is implementing them stupidly.
so what is the issue?
