Good thing I left long ago.

(#ychqfuq) @bender@twtxt.net Basically the way I’m reading this is 1 RPM. This is a rather aggressive rate limit actually. This basically makes Github inaccessible and useless for basically anything unless you’re logged in. You can basically kiss “pursuing” casually, anonymously goodbye.
Imagine if I imposed that kind of rate limit on twtxt.net?! 🤣
#rsleb5q
(#ychqfuq) @prologic@twtxt.net oh yeah a friend of mine ran into that after they forgot to log in while we were working on something together, it was nuts lol
like wouldn’t it be easier to do proof of work or something?!?!
#u3laj7a
(#ychqfuq) @bender@twtxt.net I might be a bit too negative today. 😅 I just wonder how long it’ll take until they also restrict Git operations. 🤷
