Limits
Every size, count and rate limit in one place.
Every size, count and rate limit you can run into on VYBE.ART, in one place. Most sit well above what a person working in the studio needs; they're there to keep pages fast, files playable everywhere and the site fair for everyone. Rate limits count back over a rolling window: "a day" is the last 24 hours, not since midnight.
