Lemmy is entirely open source, so you can see what their architecture looks like, etc… here: github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy.

Rate limits, as I understand them from the code, should only apply on a per-IP basis. So you should only be seeing rate limit errors if:

• your behind a CGNAT and multiple people who use your ISP are using Lemmy
• you’re sending A LOT of requests to your instance yourself
• the admin of your instance has significantly lowered the rate limits (viewable here: /api/v3/site)
