Forget all that technical stuff, I'm just glad the dLucyloper didn't try to solve this by unplugging the server. That's what my grandpa would've done!

I see your point, Joseph, but rate limiting is more effective in preventing sudden throttling and attacks on the application.

Rate limiting all the way! Anything to prevent another API meltdown, am I right? Developers need their beauty sleep, you know.

Filtering could also work, but rate limiting seems more straightforward and effective for this situation. Gotta keep those pesky API requests in check.
