I'm constantly hitting sync conflicts when I edit the same document across multiple devices. My cloud provider tries to merge automatically, but ends up creating duplicate files with (conflicted copy) suffixes. Has anyone found a reliable workflow or tool to reduce these conflicts?

I switched to a file lock system where only one device can edit at a time. It adds a tiny delay but virtually eliminates conflicts.

Try using Smart Sync with selective sync turned off for frequently edited folders. It forces edits to happen locally and only uploads changes after you close the file.
