I'm using Firefox and Brave on Linux from a residential internet provider in Europe and the 429 error triggers consistantly on both browsers. Not sure I would consider my setup questionable considering their target audience.

I’m browsing from an iPhone in Europe right now and can browse source code just fine without being logged in.
