One is a legacy card that has no foreign transaction fees. Unsurprisingly, I use it abroad. It's also a VISA, so I can use it at Costco
One is my primary card in the US that does charge foreign transaction fees. Unsurprisingly, I use it as my primary card in the US and do not use it abroad. It's not a VISA, so I cannot use it at Costco

no i did that when i was 21 but all the good ones had fees so i canceled those at that time
here's what i have
citi double cash - primary workhorse
costco visa - 4% cb on gas, 3% on restaurants, and also used at costco obviously. no foreign transaction fees. great card
amex blue cash - first card i opened in college, never use it but there for nostalgia's sake. and also one time i lost my wallet in nepal and amex was the only 180 company that gave me a cash advance immediately to get my bearings.
amex delta - this one should be canceled
capital one quicksilver - used to use this before i got the double cash. also no fx fees, decent card, should probably cancel
crate and barrel visa - i got like 2k worth of rewards from this when i bought a bunch of furniture, should cancel
chase sapphire reserve - fees are a bit too high now, will probably cancel next year

true but also doesn't matter when you get older and have enough revolving limits. just for administrative expediency it's better to have only a few imho

churning seems like such overkill for, what, like a thousand bucks a card at most maybe
thinking about opening a second just for a nice offer since i'm making a big purchase soon and will hit the minimum spend requirement easily but even then my instinct says why sully myself with this prole goy complex just for like $1k
yeah, i said used to churn. dont have time w kids to keep up w this shit. easy to miss payments bc u forgot to set up some card on autopay, and it's just more mental effort to keep track of it all
I have something like 10 and like 5 with fees. Obviously I don't run balances but yeah, I use CC benefits/points all the time. About to get 100k points for Sapphire Preferred.
