That's a good point. How does one rate limit correctly in that case?
Rate limiting by data UUID might actually be pretty effective. I should add that to patchbay.pub.

#721) It's a bit easier to read for longer text sources 2) It makes writing/reading JSON/YAML/other data sources much easier 3) lists are much easier to parse

#73Whoever made this, I love you. I do a lot of prototyping in Framer, and this just make simple prototypes that communicate with one another hell of a lot easier!
You may also like this super simple MQ I wrote a while ago: https://www.stavros.io/posts/messaging-for-your-things/
A handy substitute for mqtt since it doesn't allow a simple http get/post method to set and query keys - something very useful with iot stuff!

Adding it to the homepage would be cool too ^^
How would you phrase it? "write only link here"? I really wanna keep the basic information visible and am not sure about about adding another line
but you're right it can be discovered

#75Is there a maximum file size limit?
"There currently isn't, but it is intended for small amounts of data. Today or tomorrow I'll probably put a cap at 500Kb or so, which is still a heckload of data."

Thanks 8), rate limiting is just the most basic of nginx configs to like, 10 requests / second / ip
Really simple cool! One minor thing on the IP rate limiting side.... LOTS of mobile/cell users might end up NAT'ed behind a single IP. Just an FYI.

#77One more question: Does the data expire?

#78I think this is really nice and smart. I would suggest left-aligning the text in the edit/view mode for a few reasons: 1) It's a bit easier to read for longer text sources 2) It makes writing/reading JSON/YAML/other data sources much easier 3) lists are much easier to parse

#79Very cool! Do you have any sort of dashboard displaying stats for the service? Simple totals would be interesting, of course (size, # of buckets, # of edits, etc.), but I'd find histograms of edits etc. per bucket particularly fascinating.
I don't yet, but let me get back to you in a couple days. I think it'd be interesting to all.
