Message object rate limits
Few questions on messages editing:
Trying to implement a single message that will be updated for all my discord player events. as in update the original interaction reply message till the end of the lifecycle for that queue possibly.
1) I know the interaction is valid for a max of 15 mins. However can I do
.fetchReply() even after 15 mins ?
2) is storing the interaction and then fetching the message or storing the message object directly int othe metadata for the queue better ?
3) should I be worried about rate limits for updating the message ?
Possible scenario, I put a 10 sec clip for playback. the bot sends the original confirmation reply > audioTrackAdd > playerStart > (10 sec clip plays) > emptyQueue > disconnect messages in that order. the first 3 events might be in very short intervals. talking about seconds here.6 Replies

Edit a previously sent message. The fields content, embeds, and flags can be edited by the original message author. Other users can only edit flags and only if they have the MANAGE_MESSAGES permission in the corresponding channel. When specifying flags, ensure to include all previously set flags/bits in addition to ones that you are modifying. Only flags documented in the table below may be modified by users (unsupported flag changes are currently ignored without error).

:discord: Rate Limits
Rate limits exist across Discord's APIs to prevent spam, abuse, and service overload. Limits are applied to individual bots and users both on a per-route basis and globally. Individuals are determined using a request's authentication—for example, a bot token for a bot.
