So again, we haven't changed how we handle Rest API requests in a long while now. The library performing said requests hasn't been recompiled in nearly a year as it's been stable until 7 days ago.
This seems to be the most common error our users get (Again, we have not changed the type or frequency of calls)
Like sure we've had a small influx of new users this month, but it's just replacing users that have already left our community. I would like some clarification on what classifies as "Too many requests" and "Short Time" please.
We hardly ever have 65 unique users online on the website / making requests via oAuth at any given moment. Nor do I see any immediate indication of our site hitting our user cap in admin panel.
According to admin panel: "Active user" graph
Bandwidth usage:
I don't see anything in system or error logs to indicate my users having connection issues, nor are Rest API requests made with an oAuth token actually logged in our logs (they're supposed to when checked no?) so I don't get to see what the users actually doing/experiencing.
Could it be they're hitting a node that's under attack and therefore can't connect to the site properly? (they do report slow connection speeds via browser as well). Majority of users are fine, but it's the one's affected that complain the loudest 🤷♀️
