Question: How did you get your Youtube API quota so darn large?

Whats your quota, and how is it so large? I've been using reymusic.co and haven't ever gotten rate limited πŸ˜ƒ

Any pointers for getting a higher limit approved through the application?

I don't think there are more than 10 daily active users the last time I checked, lol.
So I'm safe for now from API usage limits. And thank you for being a consistent user :)

@s-kris interesting. at default quotas you can only make 100 searches per day, so that is surprising 10 people could even share that.

For my similar app, I ended up using the public spotify search and then a simple search+webscrape on youtube to get the first result's id for a song title from spotify

I think the daily limit is 10,000 units. We have to check how many units does each search take.

@Bkucera damn.. I didn't realise it was 100 units per search.
