Mine is that the useState hook is an actual plague on the entire React ecosystem. Regardless of your opinions of React, if you wanna use something then use it right.

Mine is basic since I'm still a noob programmer, but if you are on an OS with APT or something similar, you should absolutely automate all your commands for updating your software packages by consolidating everything into a single script.
It's easy to create a bash script that runs all your needed commands sequentially, so why not? Hell, I take it a step further with my script by aliasing it to 2 letters since I don't wanna type the full script name or type tab to autocomplete it.
I just use Linux mint which does all this for me out of the box
My distro doesn't have any OOTB tools AFAIK that does this, which is why I "need" my script and alias. That is one advantage of mint, though. Closest I have is KDE discover, but IDK how it fully works for/with updates.
It's pretty much just a GUI for apt+flathub, way cooler that you wrote your own script though :)
