  • I don't think this action is rate limited. Trying to look for a source though.

    4,451,521?. By the time you read this comment the number will have increased. I wouldn't recommend it though and the devs might complain.

    @ShaWizDowArd, I think it's not a duplicate, since this qn is about per day

    @Azik but the answer there also answer your question: "no limit", which also implies no limit per day. Saw that other question only after answering here though.

Not all actions are rate limited, only actions which either can lead to abuse or are "expensive" in the code behind e.g. take resources from the server.

Adding a question to your favorites list is a simple action which can't really be abused so it's not rate limited.

Complete list of rate limited actions can be found here.

    Should that be "expensive", or does this feature take up 10000+ lines of code? ;-)
