If you tried disabling your plugins and your current theme but couldn't fix the 429 error, it may be time to contact your hosting provider.
Sometimes, the reason for the error may be your server, rather than with your website.
If the issue is with the server, nothing you will do from your side will help.
It may be possible that your hosting provider is rate-limiting. Your host may be blocking requests from certain third-party services or platforms that make too many requests to your website, including bots, crawlers, search engines, or apps like Google Search Console.
Many bots, for example, can have a negative impact on your site, especially if they don’t follow your robots.txt. Other crawlers, like Google, are important. If this is the case with your host, make sure they limit bots and crawlers correctly.
Even if your host isn't blocking third-party services, they can still shine some light on what may be causing the error.

It's just simply there was too many requests made and you'd have to try again later. But if it's a consistant thing, like if you've waited a long period of time and it still gives you this error, If you have auto-buy extensions or something like that making requests in the background, then you'll have to remove them. Then that should fix the problem. Hopefully this helps!

I can't use the market so I don't get it?

Then my guess would be it is a problem with Steam, as previous posts I've seen regarding the same issue are usually because of some extension they have active with the market that is making automated requests, or it's their VPN that's causing issues. But if you didn't have access to the market to begin with, and you're not using any extensions whatsoever, then I'd assume it's just a glitch. But if it's really a problem, then I suggest opening a ticket with Steam Support. I apologize if I'm not much help.
I'm sure its just a bug. I don't have any sort of scripts & I haven't even touched my Steam client in hours, but I got the same problem when I went to my profile to change my avatar (1st time in about a year). The issue cleared up for me after a few minutes of retry though.
