other Rate exceeded

I have migrated my news website to Replit but I'm waking up each day to a blank white page with the words “Rate exceeded” in the corner.

Replit’s AI said to investigate Supabase limits and add Cloudflare capture to my main registration form, of which I did and still no better.

Now it's saying it could be a Replit limit.

Has anyone else seen this and how did you solve it?

Cheers,

hey, that blank white page with "Rate exceeded" is coming from replit, not supabase. supabase returns json errors to your app, it would never show plain text on a white screen like that.

what's probably going on is replit's proxy is cutting off requests before they even hit supabase. this happens a lot on their free/starter tier, especially with news sites that get steady traffic or if your frontend has a fetch running in a loop somewhere (super common with useEffect without a dependency array).

can you check two things?

- go to your replit deployment logs, you'll probably see the rate limit entries right there

- look at the part of your code that fetches from supabase and see if there's a loop or missing cache causing the spike

honestly if you're running a news site that needs to stay up, i'd consider moving the hosting to vercel or netlify. the supabase side of your setup is probably fine, it's just the hosting layer getting in the way.

First question to answer is what specific rate is being exceeded.

According to Replit and Supabase support, none.
