Ask HN: Did HN posting frequency limits change?
I've been getting "You're posting too fast. Please slow down." messages a lot lately. Even if I try to post an article within an hour of posting a comment. Did something change? I used to be able to post about 3 times every 10min.

- smt88 5y agoThey rate-limited me once after scolding me for comments that were too short, frequent, and unsubstantial, so it might not just happen for rule-breaking.
- LinuxBender 5y agoSome time ago a limit was added to allow 4 posts on the first page of "newest" assuming you have showdead off.
- Bostonian 5y agoWhen you get a posting-too-fast message when submitting a new article, it would be nice to have an indication of when you will be able to post it.
