Custom domain with fly

https://fly.io/articles/fly-glitch/
With the help of this article I was able to get my bot some custom domain.
But one question remains in my mind.

Projects are limited to 4000 requests per hour, with a burst of 4000 requests (subsequent requests will return a 429 "Too Many Requests" response).

Will I hit this rate limit even if I access the new domain setup through fly ??
i.e. if I use the new domain and not the one setup by glitch, will I hit the limit ?

Yes, rate limits still apply as fundamentally your project still runs on Glitch even though it’s accessed through a different domain. Fly do have an easy to use caching add-on that you can just enable - that would reduce the number of requests to static assets at least.
