rss-Bridge has decent caching support, customisable on a bridge level, so that comes pre-tuned and works well at low volumes for personal use.

At large scale, like the kind of traffic I started seeing when I ran a public rss-bridge Instagram/Telegram bridge - rate limits are unavoidable.

That's been my experience too. For people interested in RSS from large platforms that don't offer it natively, some of the bridges are coded with the platforms rate limits in mind.

So it's often a lot more reliable than the typical scraping script I'd code up myself for other sites.
