Dropped $120 on a pack of 'indestructible' LED strip lights that flickered like crazy after three months
Now I'm stuck replacing them one by one and wondering if I should just go back to regular bulbs - has anyone else had luck with a specific brand that actually lasts?

Oh boy, I feel your pain on those strip lights. I had a similar issue with a different brand where they died within a month of regular use, so I just went back to standard bulbs for my kitchen under-cabinet lighting and haven't looked back since. Maybe try something from a hardware store that comes with a solid warranty next time.

My neighbor @faith_lopez48 had that same issue with her bathroom vanity lights last year - she swapped to these cheapo LED strips from Amazon and they were flickering within weeks. It's wild how much of a gamble buying small electronics online has become. I bought a pair of Bluetooth earbuds for like 20 bucks that stopped connecting after three months, then a USB fan that literally smoked out on day two. Feels like every other cheap gadget from the internet is playing a game of "how fast can we break?
