I host a small Lemmy instance (just me at the moment), and on the Admin page i've noticed these rate limit settings. They don't seem to be documented and their meaning is a bit unclear to me. For example, what is the difference between 'Message Rate Limit' and 'Per Second'? And are these values per user or for the entire instance?

If anyone could explain these rate limit values (or point me to the relevant documentation) I would greatly appreciate it!

As a feature request, unraid does something where it has an information icon that when clicked, gives a full paragraph of help text above each of their values. I'd love to see Lemmy do something similar where we could toggle on full comments
