The raspberry pi is about the worst case scenario for SD cards. It may be idle, but an operating system is still making constant reads and writes, which absolutely eat through an SD card

There is a thing called Log2Ram that can help with it for Pis. I run it in my PiHoles

I've started just booting them from USB. I have Home Assistant running on a pi with an ssd in an external enclosure and it's been completely issue free.
