Roblox error 429 when launching games from the website
Clicking play in the browser opens the launcher and then fails with 429. Joining from the app works. Is it a rate limit on my account?

429 means "too many requests". Roblox is rate-limiting you, your install isn't broken. Usually it clears if you wait 5-10 minutes and stop hitting Play over and over, because every retry keeps the limit going.
If it keeps coming back: close any extra Roblox tabs, turn off browser extensions that hook into the site (server finders and stat trackers are the usual culprits), and drop the VPN if you're on one. A shared IP hits the limit much faster.
