Does the rate-limit kick in after I view 1,000+ unique posts or can I get rate-limited if I view the same post 1,000+ times? 🤔 x.com/elonmusk/statu…

Let’s fuck around and find out.
After scraping^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H viewing a single specific Tweet over 1000 times I am (for now) un-rate-limited.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Who knows if they are actually counting anything. Ok, now to try 1000+ scrapes^H^H^H^H^H^H views of the home timeline.

That should do it, right?
Welp, that did it…though so far only on web. iOS still lets me scrape^H^H^H^H ^H view with reckless abandon…are the limits client-specific? 🤔
