Did I miss the part where someone suggested using a thicker screw? Because that is the answer.

Toothpicks will also work.

Thicker screw won't go through the pre-cut holes in the door hinge, though. Those holes are cut to the size of the screw required.

Lot's of holes in this post, I expect it will end up in the quotes thread.

I just fixed the same issue on a closet door using a thicker screw.

“I was still able to shove more girth through the tight hole”
