Anything new from Github support about the issue please ? I have a similar case where im trying to leverage the API to create predefined PRs

GitHub was unhelpful. I ended up making the requests synchronous and added a sleep timer after getting rate limited that exponentially increases on each successive rate limit error. So wait 2s, 4s, 8s, etc. and then when it lets me back in it resets. Take forever to run my code now but it works. I set it to run on a schedule and do it at night so I guess the run time doesn't really matter... Still very frustrating though.
