Okay, I added a description above. I recommend writing something like this in useEffect:

Model.media().id(article["featured_media"]).get().then(media => {
    setCaption(decode(media.caption?.rendered).slice(3, -5))
})

The setCaption line can be named whatever you see fit, but I wrote it that way because it will be easier to implement with a React hook.

On my end, I will be trying to get LayoutAnimation to work so that the caption does not appear abruptly when loaded. Instead, I will make it fade in within 500 to 1200 milliseconds.
