Yo! I’d say go with a library like `requests-retry` unless you have super specific needs. Rolling your own retry logic can get messy real quick, especially with exponential backoff.
For rate limits, I usually add a `sleep()` with a random delay to avoid hitting the server too hard. Also, make sure to log your retries so you can debug later.
Btw, exponential backoff is totally worth it if you’re dealing with flaky servers. It’s not that hard to implement, and it can save you a ton of headaches.
