what about checked exceptions (Java)?

Isn't JS the same? But seems like people tend to make a lot of exception types in Java with inheritance, which I think is overkill.

Typically I'll only have a couple of exception types that my own code throws, like user error vs system error. If I want more detail than that, it goes into the exception payload rather than defining many different types of exceptions.
