I use Styrofoam cups. I just bought a sleeve of 20oz. cups at Walmart. Drilled in a few drainage holes, and I'm on year 4 of using the same cups. I stack them and store in the garage in the off season. Reusable, and the bigger volume means a larger, heartier plant before transplanting.
I love homegrown herbs and veggies, but I try to minimize cost to make my yield save me money. I like to grow mainly quick money saving plants (e.g. herbs, cherry tomatoes, etc.) It's tempting to spend $40-50 a year on cool supplies, but $40-50 could just buy a lot of herbs and veggies.

Do you take them out from Styrofoam cups before planting though, with these we don't have to I guess

You don't have to with peat pots which is why I specifically mentioned their ease of transplantation. With that said, the peat pots take a while to break down, so they limit root growth a little bit until they sufficiently break down. The counterargument is that tansplantation involves some stress, and some of that is avoided with a peat pot. The counter-counterargument is that people recomend tearing or poking holes in the peat pot to help it break down, and that definitely causes more root damage and stress than a normal pot transplantation.
I prefer styrofoam because, they can be reused many years, they hold more soil, they are less expensive, it insulates the soil on colder nights, and they don't limit root growth. To transplant from styrofoam, you just let the soil dry until it peels away from the walls a little, turn upside down and tap. The plant and root mass slides right out. Then you've got cups for the next decade or two. When they start to break down, you toss them all in a container with a cup of gasoline and they melt into a putty thats fun for kids.

I use solo cups
I knew an Anarchist Cookbook enthusiast as a kid who used this method to make homemade napalm

I ended up going with soil blocks and bootstrap farmer mesh trays. Zero transplant shock, air-pruned root systems, and the only supplies I buy are seeds, worm castings, and potting mix.
Drying out fast is what it is, but I agree on the degradation of the pot. I've seen peat pots almost entirely intact a year after planting. I would definitely make a number of slices with a knife.
Same goes with those jiffy pellets. Back when I used them, I found I had to slice the skin and kind of loosen up the root ball, or else the pellet would constrain the roots.
Not really. Coco coir mixed with perlite and vermiculite makes a good hydroponic medium.
