Get a gravel bike. My Giant Revolt Advanced with the stock 40mm tubeless tires is great on the roads, can still hold good speed, but it's comfortable and I don't have to worry about rough pavement, cracks, holes, etc. I also have a second set of wheels with road tires, but last night I did a group ride on the gravel tires and it was great. There's a section of road that is really, really bad on the right side of the lane, so everyone always squeezes over to the left to avoid it, I cruised over it at 20+mph with no issues. Makes me want to just ride gravel tires all the time. They def hurt my speed some, but I'd say for most purposes, the gravel tires will work just fine.
