404 is not a rate limit http code, 429 is. does twitter actually return 404 on rate limit response?

404 is not a rate limit http code, 429 is. does twitter actually return 404 on rate limit response?

sometimes yeah. it's like a discourage response.

also, why put it in an array if it's just one http code?

was thinking to support another code if is needed. but could be a without it

tweet = await requestTweet(dispatcher, id, guestToken, cookie);
}

tweet = await tweet.json();

let tweetTypename = tweet?.data?.tweetResult?.result?.__typename;
