Maybe this is not it, but worth checking: "Make your requests in series rather than in parallel, by waiting for one request to finish before sending a new request."[1]

Given that I have a clean residential IPv6, that is very unlikely. Plus, it was working just a few days. And it still doesn’t work with a VPN.

I don’t think it’s a bug as a few requests go through fine, based on the behavior, I think it’s server overload or something like that.

I am not sending very many requests. I haven’t sent any requests in several days and yet I get the error message.

Maybe someone else is doing it from the same IP, or maybe it's a bug. You could file a report in Phabricator with the details of what you are doing and the details from that error page.
