People shooting with their lens hood on backwards. Sometimes there is a reason to shoot with no hood, but then just take it off and leave it in the bag.

I dunno I get help from family who are mechanics, plumbers, and carpenters when I have problems. With things. Maybe they are expecting a bit too much? But in my family it's not unusual to ask someone else in the family who is an expert in an area if they can help you. They aren't always able to, I'll take my car to a mechanic tho my broth-in-law will often say why didn't you just bring it by so I could look at it with you?
If you don't have time, just be honest.
The first question is what is the dimension of your original cropped image in pixels?
I've been taking photos for almost 30 years and I've never stopped learning or trying new things. I still have a lot to learn but I keep improving. It's not a race, and you're not going to learn everything in a year.
But if you're not enjoying it, maybe take a break. If it's not fun, why do it?
Looking for the right light. Fast lenses. High ISO. Lots of waiting and taking a lot of shots that don't turn out.
Yes. All flash memory eventually goes bad, Those little switches can only be flipped from 1 to 0 and 0 to 1 so many millions of times. They can also only be read so many millions of times even if you don't change the bits.
When I have to setup digital signage that plays back off of SD cards we start by getting high endurance cards, and then if you have say a looping video. You don't just put the video on there and loop it. You put several copies of the video and you have it play copy 1, then 2, then 3... then loop to the beginning of the list because then it spreads those reads out over the whole card and it lasts longer before it crashes.
As soon as you have errors with a card replace it. Depending on how heavy you use the card start putting retirement dates on them for some that might be every 6 months, for some that might be every year or two. They are cheap just get rid of it before it goes bad, always have spares.
I post on Insta, some subreddits, and on some FB groups. It's not huge, but it's something. I've also hung prints of some of my favorites in my office ar work.
If you don't want to pay for Adobe then you should look for open-source free software.
Try Darktable or Lightzone.
Light room? In Windows I can right click and select Properties >Details and see that info.
They start in a folder one my local machine synced to OneDrive Sorted by year, then YYYT-MM-DD. I keep all the raw files (converted to DNG) My edits are mostly in Lightroom. Eventually, folders are migrated over to my NAS with the same folder structure. There they are backed up locally and to a cloud service.
I start with files stored locally and synced to OneDrive for backup. Once I am done with heavy editing work on files, and/or don't need high availability I migrate them to my NAS which is backed up locally to an external drive and backed-up to the cloud.
I use and highly recommend Synology for NAS devices.

I mean it's not a big deal. It's a pet peeve, a silly little thing that annoys me.
