Computer analysis not working

Well, it was working a few hours ago, so I was going to post my thanks here, but alas it is working no longer
Yes, that is how a limit works. If you exceed it again you need to wait again.
I did about six analyses so I was not expecting to be over the limit, but thanks very much for patronising.
Yes, it also stopped working for me after about 7 analyses yesterday, and I didn't play that much this whole week. Very weird.
"I did about six analyses so I was not expecting to be over the limit, but thanks very much for patronising."

My pleasure.

There is a weekly and a daily limit, as explained already. If you reach either of these, or if you consume too much of your weekly limit in one day, you can't ask for more games. I don't know what else to tell you, if you hit the limit you hit the limit and need to wait, or ask for less analysis next time.

Also note that if you analyse games that you did not play, it counts as two games.
Changes could be announced in landing page or somewhere. Found out the hard way.
(I love learning from mistakes, seeing graph for free, Lichess is d' best)
If there is some abuse, why not limit the number of games one can analyse that he didn't play himself or that he played on another server, but why limit regular fair players?
I understand the reason for the limit, but an announcement or a notice after reaching the limit would have been nice, I thought the site was just broken or the server down. If abuse is the problem, couldn't the number of allowed analyses still be a little higher to work for blitz-heavy weeks? By the way, big thanks to all the Lichess maintainers and developers for all their work, I guess these decisions are pretty hard to make.
