I can't seem to find much on this, and I'm not TOO bothered considering I rarely use game carts, but every time i boot my switch / resume from sleep mode it says there was an error reading the game cart.
Is there a way to fix this?

Edit: All my firmware is up to date, and i'm using sysmmc (I think that was the term?).

Its an known error that started a few firmwares ago for some people myself included. Latest firmware update has resolved the issue for most folks so not sure why you are still affected by it sorry.

If you are using Hekate disable auto nogc, and update your game cart firmware, if your firmware and lotus firmware are up to date then you might different issue.

How would I update my game cart firmware? just curious.
By disabling nogc. So the gamecart can be updated. It has its own firmware. If the firmware in the cartreader and the firmware on the switch mismatch. You can't downgrade. Not that there is a reason to at the moment.

    The worst is when its a dry poop, then you spend 20 minutes and ha!f a roll of TP wiping. Its like wiping TP over a magic marker, just won't stop showing.
