Did HN posting frequency limits change?


I've been getting "You're posting too fast. Please slow down." messages a lot lately. Even if I try to post an article within an hour of posting a comment. Did something change? I used to be able to post about 3 times every 10min.

When you get a posting-too-fast message when submitting a new article, it would be nice to have an indication of when you will be able to post it.

Some time ago a limit was added to allow 4 posts on the first page of "newest" assuming you have showdead off.
