Are you getting rate-limited by the Reddit API or the Imgur API?

If it's Reddit, then what you're suggesting is against the TOS. You're limited to 60 requests per minute.

If it's Imgur, then sign up for the Imgur Commercial API and insert your RAPID API key into the Mashape key field.

It was Reddit. But I think it's better for anonymity to be able to use proxy support.
