Are there any guidelines on how hard you can actually hit the Hacker News API? ( It looks like your backend is hitting it every five seconds; is that per user?

Are there any guidelines on how hard you can actually hit the Hacker News API?
( It looks like your backend is hitting it every five seconds; is that per user? )
also am I just too cynical these days or is this kind of just an ad for their notification infra SAAS?
- anandrmedia 4y agoThe backend hits the API every five seconds (not per user). Also, as per the HN API docs, currently there is no rate limit.
