Constantly getting "rate limit exceeded" on the trade site.

For some reason on this league i'm constantly getting "rate limit exceeded" while making like 1 search in 30m, or even unable to do it at all due to that error. What's going on?

Do you use any third-party price-checking tools?

Those use the trade API - and as the requests originate from software on your PC rather than a web server, the resulting rate-limiting would be applied to your IP address.

If not, are you using a VPN or otherwise sharing a public-facing IP address, such as playing at a gaming / internet cafe, or gaming from e.g. a college campus?

Oh, i think the 2nd one is the reason, although it shouldn't be? Seemingly some trade ip's somehow sneaked into the vpn whitelist. Somehow, as it's all supposed to be youtube and discord ip's (sharing ip range? idk). Many thanks, did not thought it could be the reason since i had this whitelist for quite amount of time.
