adv, I have a friend who's been really getting on my nerves recently, and I'm not sure what to do about it. He's one of those people that really wants to always be the center of attention and honestly had been kind of a chore to be around recently. That said, I still really value the friendship so I don't want to just stop spending time with him, but I'm not sure if I should say anything to him about how I'm feeling about it.
I don't want to hurt his feelings, and I don't even know if it would be my place to say anything (like I said, I'm just really annoyed, so there's not really anything objectively wrong to correct), but I also feel like it could be beneficial for him to hear these things. I'm not the only one who's noticed this about him, and I've introduced other friends of mine to him and they instantly disliked him.
Any insight at all would be extremely helpful.

i mean if you can't pinpoint something thats wrong then it sounds like hes just cohesively a bad person (to you). can you really say you like him?
if you just say 'hey you're annoying' whats he going to do? just stop being him self? with something solid that you can pick out it gives him something to work on, a flaw that he can better, just a piece of him self that is wrong.
but you're essentially suggesting that everyone just naturally finds him annoying nad even if you tell him there isn't anything he can do abotu it other then just completely upturn his personality.

This is what I'm worried about. We've been friends for a really long time, over 10 years at this point, and I do still like hanging out with him, but I'm able to pinpoint these annoying things he does so accurately now that after a short while I'm just overwhelmed.
He just tried to dominate all conversations, regardless of his involvement with the topic, and so I feel like I can pinpoint specific things he does, but I feel like those specific things might actually make up his personality (or at least whatever personality he's manufactured to show people), which is why I feel stuck.
Does that seem solid enough to say something about? and if so, would it just be a matter of saying it to him?
I'm really not the best in confrontational situations.
