I was browsing Danbooru as usual when a message saying: "Better Better Booru: Error retrieving information. Your Danbooru API access is currently throttled. Please try again later." suddenly showed up. What should I do to fix it?

I don't know much regarding Danbooru's limit, but I believe it goes by an hourly basis. Basic users get 3,000 requests per hour and anonymous users get 500 requests per hour. Since it appears to be bound to IP, you can either change that or wait.

Oh, I see. Thank your for your answer

No problem.
