3. Making Anilist info optional
Actually crawling anilist data violates Anilist API's terms of service. Instead of crawling everything upfront, I think it's better to query anilist data on-the-fly when necessary. The website and telegram bot has updates to behave like this. In this way, this would reduce future API changes due to anilist's data structure. The chinese translated titles are also separated from my database now. So it can run as a standalone proxy that injects chinese titles on-the-fly. If you're interested in serverless/cloudflare workers, take a look at this repo. https://github.com/soruly/anilist-chinese
4. Rate Limits
In recent months I've been working hard to regulate the traffic to avoid crashing the server due to overload. Apart from rate limit and concurrent search limit, I've also added a queue of database search. Sadly, the queue still often gets full during rush hours, especially when there are a few slow search requests that blocks the rest of the queue. I'm still evaluating the parameters so the actual numbers are not finalized yet. I'm expecting to complete and release the new API in 1-2 months. So for those whom may concern, join the discussion on Discord https://discord.gg/K9jn6Kj
