I've been using my Lenovo Ideapad Flex 5 for about two years now, and I've had a bunch of charger issues. The original charger lasted a year and a half, which was great, but after that, I bought a new one that only worked for two months. A bit weird, but I thought it might just be a coincidence. Then I got another charger, and this one broke just three weeks later! It's making me wonder if the laptop itself is causing the problem. The weird thing is, these chargers break suddenly right after I finish charging the laptop. Just to be clear, none of them were cheap knockoffs; they were all actual Lenovo chargers. Could my laptop be the issue?

Are you sure you're using the official Lenovo chargers? Sometimes people buy the cheaper versions or knockoffs from sites like Amazon, which can cause issues. There are a lot of low-quality chargers out there that just don't hold up. Make sure the ones you’re buying are legit Lenovo products; that's key!
The second one was an actual Lenovo charger from Amazon, while the third one was a decent knockoff that cost about €10 more than the second one.
