429 UNKNOWN STATUS CODE for feeds?v=2

problem
#1

“GET feeds?v=2” returns 429 UNKNOWN STATUS CODE from time to time. I can reproduce after several clicks on the browser’s refresh button.

Status code 429 is my rate limiter. Means you’re hitting refresh_feeds or /reader/feeds more than 10 times a minute. That’s supposed to happen. Unfortunately, it also trips some people up who are refreshing the site.

Alright, thanks for clarifying this.
