For friends and family try listen to their problems/annoyances. Usually people tend to complain until they fix it by themselves and if not, it’s your chance to shine.
If you want to contribute something to a hobby, ask first or gift cash. Most of the time the gift will be not needed or already surpassed with better/more expensive gear.
This, combined with another post saying buy something they want but can’t justify spending that much for an x is the best recipe for gift success.
There’s a number of things I want, but I’m like, I dunno if I’d use it $x worth to justify it, so those are the things my GF buys me.
She’s a spender, but she’ll say, dang I could really use an x, but then she forgets about it, but I don’t, so that’s what I get her.
Also, no need really to wait for a birthday or holiday. Just get people stuff if you like them and feel like it. We typically give each other gifts like a month early since the point is to see them enjoy them.
When it comes to hobby we tend to ask each other to send a link to the product in advance of the gifting occasion. It takes the surprise out of the event, but you get something which you can actually use.
For other gifts, try to keep a log or notes. And yes, gift cards are also very nice.
