Rate Limit 429

Hello everyone,

I am making requests to the following endpoint:

https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/get-recently-played

And I am receiving a 429 error. The documentation only mentions that there is a rate limit in a 30s window (https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/concepts/rate-limits), but it does not specify the exact limit. Additionally, I would like to know if there are other limits, such as daily or per second limits.

I have throttled the requests, waiting 30s after every 80 requests, and then continuing to make more. However, even this has not been enough. Since I am sending requests in parallel, I would like to know if this could be a problem. Does anyone have any experience with this?
