Composition is far better and immensely more flexible than inheritance. Extracting duplicate code into helper classes or static functions is a good option.
Conformance to interfaces or protocols with default implementations is a great alternative as well.
I like OOP more than other styles, it’s just often badly done. Complex inheritance, huge classes that do too much, overuse of factories and similar patterns, can ruin it.
