fail with status: 429 is my arch-nemesis.
Here’s what’s worked for me:
- Cache *everything*. Like, aggressively.
- Use a service like RapidAPI if the site’s limits are too tight.
Also, some APIs have a "sandbox" mode with higher limits. Worth asking support!

Wow, didn’t expect so many replies! Thanks y’all.
The `backoff` library and rotating IPs sound promising—gonna try those next.
Quick Q: Anyone know if Cloudflare’s rate limits are worse during peak hours? Feels like it’s hitting me harder in the evenings.
Also, big shoutout to the caching tips. Already cut my errors in half. 🙌
