Yeah, whenever I read about someone having problems with microSD cards it turns out they use a sketchy power adapter.
I use exclusively the official RPi adapter with SanDisk cards (the standard ones, not any fancy variants) and had exactly zero problems.
I've been running them many years (8 highest) on multiple RPis, no special settings to make the system read only or anything. Numerous power cut offs (esp. when that's the only way how to power off or restart on the older Pis). Zero issues. I even had one RPi 3B+ failing (random lockups after some time), yet the microSD card from it was fine.
