retry package for golang
May I suggest directions to improve? - add option for exponential or linear backoff - stop early on non-retriable errors Example: https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/cenkalti/backoff/v4 (do not know about its author, just a package I've been using).

I have used https://github.com/cenkalti/backoff a few years ago and I don't know if it's the best candidate at this point but it's worth to consider in combination with or as an alternative to x/time/rate if you are going that route.
