"There are different interpretations of QM (e.g. bohmian mechanics or GRW/stochastic collapse) which don't have this problem. If you are interested in QM, I strongly suggest looking these theories up."

I respectfully disagree. You can spend years reading about interpretations and the gain in terms of your understanding of Quantum Mechanics will be zero. For anyone interested in Quantum Mechanics, I strongly suggest actually trying to learn it, instead of dabbling into confusing popular articles the authors of the majority of which have never studied theoretical physics themselves.

Please note I'm not saying that you don't know Quantum Mechanics. I just think your advice is bad.

So here's my advice to anyone out there who feels that they want to know more. See the Schroedinger equation. Learn how to calculate energy levels for the harmonic oscillator and for the hydrogen atom. Read first six chapter's of Paul Dirac's "The principles of quantum mechanics". The time spent reading about interpretations and philosophical implications of QM is wasted. People who do research in theoretical physics devote very little time to such considerations, or no at all.
