He likely throttles the connection. Slow down, sir. =)

i think it's a global event .hahaha Yesterday when i trying to load my local dev site , 429 appears from nowhere , it never happen before. Maybe it's just because the laravel update. you can change the throttle to a higher number in kernel.php.

Looks like download is now limited to 30 videos per 24h. It doesn't matter how many videos you download at the same time.

thats a pretty bad limit. i used to download videos long back but later i decided not to as net speed is good anyways.

now due to covid, i am leaving metro city to my village and i wanted to download videos.

now i can't do that because of 30 videos limit (and i deleted all earlier downloaded videos months back)

So, If I understand correctly, if I am only able to watch the videos offline/video player I am limited to 30 or less videos per day (I think unfinished downloads also counted towards the limit). I want to ask if that is covered by ToS or should we just claim a refund for our corporate license?

I don't think there is a limit for download per day but i do believe there is threshold for download per hour,unless someone can prove it...

No. "We" all are fine with watching it online as the streaming speed is decent and hassle free...

*since you use "we" so i use "we" too even it's my personal opinion.... ;p btw, as i understand that Laracasts is providing subscription basis to watch the lessons but not license to use the videos....

You are so wrong on so many levels, it's not even funny. Every sentence of your reply is either completely wrong out plain stupid... Why would you willingly make yourself look like that? 🤔

How to resolve this? I have limited bandwidth at where I stay, so I download it after my office hours from office. Now, I'm getting this error when try to download. I try clearing the cache & deleting the browser history but still this persist. What to do?

How do you resolve this, I cannot watch any videos on the site and my only choice is to download the video. This 429 error has been there for almost 24 hours. That seems a little long for the throttle to hold on.

@rickysut-27186274 I think the issue with the download isn't purely a Laracasts throttle, there is most likely a Vimeo throttle as well, and there isn't a problem unless you spam the downloads.
