Summary

  • The conditional requests section incorrectly claimed that 304 Not Modified responses don't count against a user's daily rate limit quota — they do; only bandwidth is saved.
  • Removed the false claim from the original sentence and added a dated (2026-08-21) update note explaining the correction, since the post was already published.

Conditional requests (304 responses) still count against the daily rate limit quota — only bandwidth is saved. Correct the claim and add a dated update note for readers of the original post.
