I saw a lot of threads complaining about only being able to send 10 Requests per Hour to Appwrite. For the Cloud Version that makes kind of sense, but for my self-hosted option i want to increase the limit, especially because i am in development. But i dont find any documentation or thread about how to actually increase the rate limit. How can i achieve this?

TL;DR
Developers are unable to increase the rate limit in self-hosted Appwrite for now. A workaround is to utilize Cloudflare with custom rate limits. Alternatively, developers can set the Environment Variable `_APP_OPTIONS_ABUSE` to `disabled` to deactivate rate limiting completely, although this is not recommended for production mode. Custom rate limits are planned for the next release.

I finally found out how to fix this. There is the Option to set the Environment Variable _APP_OPTIONS_ABUSE to disabled which completly deactivates the rate limiting. In Production Mode that is of course not suitable but is the only option really to disable the rate limiting and not adjusting it?

Not possible for now. An alternative is setting Cloudflare in front with custom rate limits.

Custom rate limits are planned for the next release if I'm not wrong
