This may not be Voat, but it sure as hell feels like Voat.
Don't stress out too much, if it's down, it's down.

At least [RAMBLE] is not Clownflared, doesn't require JavaScript, doesn't limit you to one post per day. You know, it's just better than the now defunct Voat.co.

On a technological level I might agree, but other than that it's just a different experience. Voat didn't limit me to three posts per subverse per hour, like Ramble does. And Voat had some privileges attached to the Internet points you could collect. Above 100 points or so, all restrictions were lifted and beyond that it didn't matter, anymore.

This was a measure against bots and shills. Not sure if it accomplished anything. But since the original Voat is now dead, everything will be better, so there's that.

Wait, this happens?

Send me a PM with details if you can and I'll review it further as able.

I think it's more of a global thing. I get three submissions per hour (independent of where I post), after that: https://i.imgur.com/MQ89QxW.png

Thought it's to prevent spam.

It may be, I see no specific setting for it on my end. There are some config settings available to whitelist certain IPs, which I have to use so Tor Onion, I2P, Loki network users don't get rate limited since they share the same IP of the network connection they're using...

I can individually whitelist accounts which does: "Whitelisting will allow this user to bypass IP bans and some flood protections. Additionally, their IP addresses will no longer be stored." So I've gone ahead and done that for you, but no sort of global "X posts per 1 hour" type of rule to be set.

IPs are merged automatically on a cronjob schedule anyway for everyone so whitelisting really only prevents you from getting stopped by the spam filter that has no configurable settings anywhere.

Cool, thank you very much. Then I can enable IP spoofing again without running into issues again.

Should be able to. If it doesn't, drop me a line and I can at least look into. May not be immediate but I have a to-do list of stuff I work on even if some things are super old on it, haha.
