I want to make my own website, like a blog where I talk about tech and tutorials and such. Something like https://kerkour.com and https://lukesmith.xyz. Any ideas for simple but modern design?

I’m sorry, still I’ve and I do that from time to time. Last month or so I was upgrading old WP sites from PHP 7 to work on PHP 8.2 and yes I had to manually fix stuff here and there. As you yourself said the problem isn’t WP alone, its the amounts of shit people do with it - plugins and themes very poorly coded etc.
I’ve had two very different experiences, websites that were properly coded back then and updates go very smoothly without intervention (or little) and then the run of the mill theme coded in India with 400 plugins that will all break.
When things are properly done by professionals they tend to work fine in the long run, you don’t have to deal with shitty plugins and poorly structured code. WP itself is solid and good, what people add above tends to be garbage.
