You’re not thinking for 10 settings every move. You’re spending 1-5 on obvious moves, and maybe m a few minutes analyzing difficult positions.
If your opponent gives you a few difficult choices in a 10min game, you’re either going to time out or pick the wrong choice.
A nice middle ground is 15|10.
The increment gives you enough time to think, but there is still risk of timeout.

there is? i feel like 10 second increment is way too much. In the opening u really only take like maybe 5 seconds a move and ur gaining time instead of losing

Some people here wrote that they play 15+10 (a lot of incremental). Is it comfortable? It takes forever even for me - and I also prefer Rapid games (10/0)
Unfortunately the only popular rapid time controls here are 10 minute and 15+10 and neither of them fit both categories. But in 15+10 even though you will never run out of time due to increment there will still be time pressure
