Another tip is when you put on a tire, align the label of the tire with the valve stem. Doing that, when you dismount the tube you will have a good idea of where the offending object entered the tire to puncture the tube. carefully sweep that area with your fingers and also look at the outside of the tire for glass, thorn, whatever. It’s a good habit to get into.

Tubeless people can just ignore that and me in general.

BUT, if you are under inflating the tires going tubeless (requires tubeless compatible rims and tires) might be the thing for you.
