For me the most frequent source of freezes was Tramp. It led me to ditch Emacs for VSCode (with the remote editing extension) at least for my dayjob (I still use Emacs for my own projects). Tramp is an official built-in package, so it's not as if I downloaded a random package from GitHub.

While I did not ditch Emacs nor do I plan to do so, I agree, that TRAMP is a constant source of grief. It is great in its functionality, but frequent freezing is annoyingly cold.
These issues are often interactions between packages. I use TRAMP daily without freezing, but only when I disable company mode in shell modes. VSCode certainly requires much less of this tweaking, even with a variety of extensions installed.
