Getting hit with a 429 status code - how do you handle rate limiting effectively? or Why am I seeing

If you’re hitting 429 status codes, your script *is* spamming too hard—even if it doesn’t feel like it.

Try logging your request timestamps to see if you’re accidentally bursting.

Tools like ngrok can help debug by showing you exactly how your requests look to the server.

And yeah, exponential backoff is your friend.
