Is there a countdown on when RIF will stop working? Is it based on midnight GMT? EST? PST? CST?

Reddit missed their own deadline for enabling rate limits and now they are weeks away. 🤦‍♀️

Hi Devs,

Over the last few months, we’ve shared updates on our Data API Terms and Developer Terms. Shortly, we will begin enforcing the previously announced, updated API rate limits. Rate limits will go into effect for all apps with usage above the free limit in the coming weeks, and some changes will be noticeable over the next 24 hours.

As we have shared, this will not impact non-commercial bots operating within free rate limits or moderator tools.

Free API access rates are as follows:

100 queries per minute per OAuth client id if you are using OAuth authentication

10 queries per minute if you are not using OAuth authentication

The vast majority of third-party apps and bots fall into the free usage category and should not see any disruptions. Our free rates account for bursts in usage.

For apps that exceed these limits, we have exempted select clients (for example, accessibility-focused apps like RedReader, Luna, and Dystopia), mod bots, and mod tools. If your bot or tool is affected unexpectedly, please reach out here.

I get having megathreads, but currently kbin doesn't care whether a post on Lemmy is pinned, so megathreads make it harder here to follow news and discussions on the topic.
