So let me start this by thanking so many people for using Lemmios! But more people does come with some issues, I currently have 126 users on lemmy.world that have notifications enabled, which means enough requests that I am starting to hit their rate limits and a solution needs to be found. I have identified a few options:
- Start requiring a cost for notifications in order to limit users (instructions to self-host server for no cost will be available)
- Make notifications have a significant delay (definitely don't want this)
- Offer to lemmy.world devs to pay for a higher rate limit just for the Lemmios servers (definitely ideal but Lemmios hasn't made any money yet and I'm a highschooler with very limited funds lol, I'll drop a donation link just in case anyone is feeling insanely generous)
What does everyone here think is the best option?
