Hi,
We are working on a school project to collect movie data, and our team consists of five members. We’ve read several articles about request limits and potential issues, but we’d like to confirm our understanding of the following points:
Additionally, we’d like to check if there are any specific daily limits. For instance, we estimate that we may need to request data for 3,000 or more movie IDs. Thank you so much for your help!
we found an article in 2023 for daily limits If it's still the same?

There are limits for the WEB interface. There are no limits for API requests.
I am not aware if these parameters have been changed.
I'm not really sure but maybe it was reduced from 50 to 40 RPS.
Otherwise I believe it was valid..
Of course, if a DDoS attack is carried out, the system will certainly react and change the limits.
