My discord bot (20 shards) suddenly stopped receiving events earlier today. As a possible remedy I tried rebooting the entire process but it suddenly stopped coming online after that.
I narrowed the issue down to a rate limit from the gateway, however I have absolutely no idea how I hit that. As far as I am aware the shards weren't crashing actively causing a reconnect.
Any ideas?

If the internet goes out for too long, Discord may force you to reidentify
Consuming that particular rate limit

Internet of the host?
hot nacelle
Yea

Strange, still a huge timeout from Discord their end which is annoying
hot nacelle
1000 identifies / 24 hrs would give you 50 times if the internet goes out per day
iron shore
That sounds unlikely but possible I guess
hot nacelle
Ig it could also be technically possible if the bot gets stuck on a sync task for too long
You'd prob notice from spikes in response times tho
iron shore
Ok well time-out expired now finally

You could start off by tracking when a shard reconnects

Just hit the rate limit again, Altough I think its Cloudflare or something not discord as every endpoint is blocked? I did notice a lot of rate limited requests to fetch messages, though I assumed djs would properly handle that?
This has never and I mean never occurred before, today it just suddenly started happening

Ok I was fetching partials from the api which was unneeded and caused a lot of overhead and unneeded requests, ive disabled partials for now, hopefully that adresses the ratelimit issue
