I'll start.
Writing unit tests for small side projects. I know the "correct" answer. I know CI will flag it. But when it's midnight and the feature finally works, I'm pushing to main and going to bed.
I also think most README files are written for the author's ego, not the reader. Half the time I just want to know how to install the thing, not the entire philosophy behind it.
What's yours? The rule everyone repeats that you quietly ignore because the alternative slows you down for no real benefit?
Genuinely curious — not judging.

Also just remembered — I still commit directly to main on solo projects half the time. Feature branches feel like theater when I'm the only one who'll ever look at the PR.
