Aggressive rate-limiting #31

Closed locrianz closed 5 months ago

locrianz commented 6 months ago

So with everything else going on, I didn't think to mention this, but it is a bit annoying.

If I post from Tootik, even just one time, I can't post again for at least a minute; there's an error page that says "Please wait before posting again". This makes posting threads a bit annoying, especially since the character limit on Tootik seems to be fairly small. Is this intended behavior?

(On that note, account creation was disabled for an hour when I first launched the service, but I was willing to accept that as a one-time hurdle. Was that intended?)

Everything is intentional, PRs that make rate limiting optional or configurable are welcome (I have bigger things to work on before I find the time).

It's configurable now
