Releases widget rate limited by GitHub
Hey folks!! I'm getting an error with the new (and absolutely incredible) releases widget. Is there any way to resolve this? I have a github account and would love to authenticate it to increase my rate limit, but that doesn't seem supported within the widget just yet.
```
{
"message": "API rate limit exceeded for {my_IP}. (But here's the good news: Authenticated requests get a higher rate limit. Check out the documentation for more details.)",
"documentation_url": "https://docs.github.com/rest/overview/resources-in-the-rest-api#rate-limiting"
}

Isn't this a bug request?
I'd love to know if there's something in the compose file to fix this
Or if it's just a matter of adding different providers

Bugs also need to be reported to GitHub. And no, this is a feature, not a bug, since it works in the intended way and additional work needs to be done to support authentication.
Thanks for submitting the issue. Let us know if you have any other questions or problems. Thanks
I am now encountering this. Has this been implemented (the fix, of this not bug I guess)?
Not yet, but somebody is working on it and it we be part of one of the neyt few releases
