    So, ultimately my problem was that I was trying to set all of the limits to what I thought were "reasonable" values simultaneously, and misunderstood what 'Message' meant, and so I ended up breaking things with my changes without the reason being obvious to me. I looked into the source code and I can see now that indeed 'Messages' refer to API calls and not direct messages, and that there is no 'Direct Message' rate limit.

    If I let 'Messages' stay high I can adjust the other values to reasonable values and everything works fine.

    Thanks a lot for your help!! I am surprised and happy it actually worked out and I understand a little more 😁

    Hi I think I set the messages too low as well and now no.lastname.nz is down, pointers on how to fix with no frontend?

    All good, taught me again not to rely on chatGPT. I even said I needed to find the right BD table and field and it lead me down a rabbit hole of editing config/env files

    Fuck AI

    Haha, yeah, trusting ChatGPT with how to manipulate the database and change config files is a risky move 😆 I did use it myself to remind me of the postgresql syntax to find and alter the field.
