#Implement Automatic Fallback Support for Multiple Lavalink Nodes

One more thing can we add proper support for multiple Lavalink nodes? Right now, the debug panel allows adding multiple nodes, but they don’t take over when the main node goes broken or flagged. It would be great if the system could automatically switch to a backup node when the primary one fails.

have you tried the yt limiter?

In my case I never needed one. My account was never flagged, but I think that adding this feature will improve redundancy. Ratelimiter won't save you forever. At some point your account might get flagged and the bot will stop working.

The reason I don't swap the flagged node for another one is that it could potentially break your other node. If the traffic suddenly increases, YouTube might block your alternative node, as happened with my main vocard bot

By "break" you mean YouTube flagging it instantly?

I believe that most likely some well known bots use this method

I've already tested this in production, and the results aren't great. It seems like most of the bots are using the yt_ratelimit method instead
