Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/benbusby/whoogle-search/issues/1159

Describe the bug
I have waited a full week to see if this rate limit issue gets subsides. That means no searches on my instance for a week, still it's not resolved.
IDK if I'm the only facing this issue. But I have redeployed. Restarted service, install past commits as well the latest one. Even Tried on another render account. I keep facing the same rate limit error

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Go to any instance deployed on Render or deploy a whole instance on Render
Search anything
See rate limit error

Deployment Method

Heroku (one-click deploy)
Docker
run executable
pip/pipx
Other: Render using Dockerfile

Version of Whoogle Search

Latest build from [source] (i.e. GitHub, Docker Hub, pip, etc)
Version 8.4
Not sure

Desktop (please complete the following information):

OS: [e.g. iOS]
Browser [e.g. chrome, safari]
Version [e.g. 22]

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

Device: Redmi 8
OS: MIUI 12
Browser: multiple browser from firefox to webview
Version [e.g. 22]

Additional context
Add any other context about the problem here.
I have deployed whoogle temporarily to replit, it has no problem. Sadly replot has removed always on service on their free tier. So it's not a good solution for me. Other deployment methods require technical knowledge which I don't have
I'm not a coder

Getting the same problem on my end, with a manual Docker setup.

EDIT: worked a few hours later again on my end, haven't had any issues since then.
