Just a reminder, Mastodon had rate limits long before #twitter... lets not get too cocky on this one.
This must have been before my time. I've never seen it myself.
@lucifargundam Its still here. Most people have probably never seen it because most people dont bother to exceed the limit. But it is there. I've ran into it myself when i used a fediverse client on multiple devices at once.
You would only run into it running multiple clients on multiple devices (much like the twitter rate limit in theory).
@freemo @lucifargundam Once, Elon broke the rate limits just by releasing a long tweet feature. No one could post. No one lol
@freemo @olives @lucifargundam I've seen it and one does not need multiple devices...
The easy way to see it is leaving a lot of tabs open in the browser interface. I did that before i realized that all browser tabs poll all the time.
@freemo @lucifargundam I've seen a lag at times in synchronising messages but haven't run into a rate limit.
