While `?print=true` works (as well as `&page=2`), there appears to be more Rate limit than without `print=true`. I wonder how many requests I can do, and considered safe, not to hit status 422.

I am trying to read around 9000 posts, so for 20 posts at once, it will either be very slow, or get rate-limited…
