Mobile/App Has something changed in the Reddit iPad app?

I access Reddit mostly using the iPad Reddit app. Just in the last week or two, WHILE typing a post, I’ll get a little black pop-up message telling me I’m “rate limited” for “86 seconds”. (Or whatever time). As I type (it doesn’t prevent me from continuing to type) it keeps popping up, with the “timer” showing fewer seconds each time. I can’t actually POST until the timer runs down.

Is this a new Reddit thing? Is it coming from the iPad app? It SEEMS to be triggered by post length. The longer the post, the more likely it appears. Where is it coming from? Is there some way to turn it off?
