To be precise, it's not 4 requests to the same endpoint.
lemmy-meter probes 4 endpoints each once per minute:
- The landing page
api.getPosts(limit=1)api.getComments(limit=1)api.getCommunities(limit=1)
That's b/c I've frequently experienced cases when the landing page works but some mobile APIs don't and vice versa.
Hope that makes sense.
As I said, if after some time you feel like this is too much load, reach out to me and I can easily configure lemmy-meter to probe less frequently.
