Good old Tobasco.
Tapatio for me.
Tapatio goes with everything!
Gringo Bandito. It’s a flavorful medium-heat hot sauce.
Valentina. Not very hot, but I like it and use it like ketchup.
Try the black label if you want a bit more heat.
Hot sauce is for people who dont enjoy taste.
There’s this belizean hot sauce called Marie Sharp’s, I get the gold one. Doesn’t sting me at all, my family can’t handle heat, but it does the job well enough.
My favourite however is Salsa Macha. Can’t get dried pepper where I’m at though, or I’d make it myself. Goes great with just about anything, even compound butter slathered bbq steaks.
I go for salsas and chunky condiments (e.g. black bean chilli crisp, hot Indian chutneys) than just a liquid hot sauce, even then it’s sriracha.
Encona West Indian Papaya Hot Pepper Sauce
Aardvark Habanero and Renfro’s Habanero Salsa. I just really like habanero, okay?
My own sauce because it’s not cooked, without vinegar and hotter.
Current favorites are The Seventh Reaper and Heartbeat Scorpion. Tasty and hot but not stupid hot.
Oh and in the milder end: Dirty Dick’s Hot Pepper Sauce With a Tropical Twist

El Yucateco - all of their habanero-based sauces are good. I had the black label one recently and feel like I’ve discovered a new favorite.
Kill Sauce - limited selection but really unique sauces with complex flavor profiles to balance the heat. The Habanero is exemplary, but the Carolina and Ghost versions are the pinnacle, IMO.
Everything from Secret Aardvark and most of Crazy Bastard
A good, fresh salsa verde
