Is this against a live server, or one of the testing servers?
There is logic within lemmy to try and detect the same network - and I can imagine it gets false positives with a variety of situations. Your one client is probably not the cause if you are posting 1 every 10 seconds.
This bit me too.
How I believe you would read it for posts, using the values you posted, is "6 posts are allowed every 600 seconds". The variables are poorly named IMO.
Following those rules, my own application seemed to stop getting rate limited.
don't spam.
