Is it smart to hang tees? Cause I've heard that if you'd hang your tee, the tee's collar would stretch. But I like hanging my tees, cause it's easier to show off my collection cool haha.
What do you guys think?

Inserting the hanger from the bottom of the shirt = no stretched collars.

Usually works for me.

But over time the collar would stretch usually while it's hanged..

I used to hang my tees but the hanger would often leave little bumps in the shoulders. Now I always fold them.

Always fold. Hangers stretches the collar, and depending on the shape of one, it can also cause shoulder bumps. Think about it, if you're hanging a shirt, gravity is going to pull it down leaving stretches according from the hanger. It's best to go with gravity, and leaving it flat. Obviously folding them would cause creases but after 2 minutes of wear that stuff is gone.

The shirts I don't care about or wear under something I fold. My favorite shirts I hang. Collars don't get stretched if you put the hanger in from the bottom. Also if the fabric is delicate enough to get stretched on the shoulders then use extra wide hangers for suits/jackets. It would be almost equivalent to wearing the shirt in terms of gravity pulling.

Of course, the wooden hangers are ten times better than the plastic one. I forgot to mention that previously. But most people hang with those plastic hangers. And the collar can still stretch no matter how you put it on. You're hanging your tee by itself latched onto the collar and shoulder-area not to mention that the fabric around the collar is easily malleable and never retracts to it's original form. Fold your tees (basic shirts, graphic tees) and fold anything else that is worn over the head (i.e. crewnecks, pullovers, raglans). The only time you hang clothes is when it can be opened, like jackets, coats, dress shirts, button ups, suits, vests, zip-up hoodies.

Even if you put your hanger on under the shirt, how do you take it out? Do you pull out the shirt so the hanger goes through the collar like how everybody does it(which stretches the collar by the way) or do you maneuver it such a way so it comes out from the bottom again.. which seems pretty silly to do lol

hang them, just buy good hangers that put the pressure on the shoulders and not the collar. Like hangers you used for suits.

I fold them and stack them on a huge shelf (same shelf where my shoe boxes are) so basically it's like a store.
Hanging causes the collar to stretch.

Fold all tees, a wrinkle is easier to deal with than a stretched collar.

Button downs can be hung.
