    Hmm, well my personal instance works fine and has for months, no limitations that I’ve encountered. Guess I’m just lucky

        I wonder if it impacts public instances because it’s rate-limiting the requests, where it’s just me on my private instance so it’s not hitting the limit.

        If so then it’s pretty easy to spin one up in docker and get around the issue.

        Of course leaving reddit entirely is always better.

        Also I’m not tuned in – what laws did they break?
