Voting intermittently not working (feddit.online)

The last few days, every once in a while I suddenly can't vote on posts. Seems random for the timing on it all, as well as random for when it starts working again. Anyone else been having any issues? I've already tried from several different computers and IP addresses. Thanks!

Nope. It's also effecting my Boost for Lemmy app as well when it happens. That's actually usually how I notice it first, then I try it on other devices and browsers and it seems to still not work.

I just opened the console log in my browser, and it seems like I'm getting rate limited. Example of one below:

XHRPOST https://feddit.online/post/1814638/upvote/default [HTTP/2 429 96ms]

Response Status Error Code 429 from /post/1814638/upvote/default

Also I'm seeing posts from other instances with an image or video attached but instead of the media is a placeholder label saying 'Quote is waiting to be approved ' and, when I look on the OP's instance, it is viewable. It doesn't ever show up at feddit.online. I think this also is a related VPS error.

VPS comms error. I have noticed some rate limiting, too. I think it's related.

Rate limiting is possible. Currently, 1/3 of all the traffic coming in (about 200K requests/day) are bots. Rate limits were necessary. How often do you vote within a minute?

In the past 24 hours, only 13 requests got rate-limited by the firewall. No rate limits in the last 24 hours from the server itself. The 13 was part of a burst of requests coming from lemmy.world. But just 13 the whole day. Unsure where else the 429 error could have come from. Seems unlikely it was from feddit.online.
