- soneca 3y agoI don’t think it’s intentional. I got a “rate limit exceeded” on the official mobile app while on an account where I follow only 17 people and don’t post anything. Edit: funny that I have two profiles logged in the same app. One is working, the other is not.

- DaveChild 3y agoFunny, isn't it. They ruin API access and overcharge for it, so everyone scrapes, and in trying to stop that they ruin the product for the users, without whom it's worth nothing. Reddit, take note, this is you in 6 months.
