Are there any beginner Blender tutorials that just point out all the important features you need to know to get started and give a short explanation on what each one of them does? The "walkthrough/explanation of making a specific object" thing most do doesn't really click with me.
Usually I learn software by just fiddling with it and seeing what buttons do, but Blender is way too unintuitive and arcane for me to even know where to start, so I basically just want a video where someone fiddles with it for me and says what all the buttons do and points out which ones I'd need to press to get anything other than a cube on my screen

If you want to learn by just fiddling around, I suggest installing Wings 3D instead. It’s very well suited to just fucking around and learning as you do it.

the donut tutorial apparently makes you learn about a bit of everything

Fuck blender, install maya. Stop feeding the youtube algorithm.

FlippedNormal's tutorial, split in two parts, learning the UI and what each tool does, and the actual modelling

I am simply staggered by how bad Blender is.
Every time I go to look up something on youtube about 3D, it is 90% blender content, and that does not sit well with me since I use actual 3D software (Cinema 4D).
I have come to /3/ for the first time in 2 years just to see someone else complain about blender because I am at wit's end with this shit.
The only reason I'm using it is to make CC for the Sims 4 and it's been the biggest headache in my entire life as a 3D guy.
Blender was 100% made by freelance Python trannies with pink hair and a 5oclock shadow.
There is simply no way a normal functioning adult would come up with such a bullshit interface.
I hate Blender. Why do troons insist that EVERYONE must use it?
I almost feel sorry for people who use blender.

That's because you're new to 3D and have 2x the work. You're learning basic principles applicable to all 3D at the same time you're trying to learn the UI of one program - even if Blender is the easiest to learn.
You just need mileage. Why did you start learning 3d? Make a shitty version of what you wanted, and then go study something, and then try again. You keep doing this until you've made it.

Blender is not the easiest to learn because the UI was made by freaks with blue head and chest hair + fake estrogen tits. It's subhuman trash tier. Absolutely the worst of any 3D program that ever has or ever will exist. Nothing whatsoever remotely acceptable about it - it's shit.
It's the worst software I've ever had to use. Absolute dog shit tier excuse for 3DCG software.
I'm pretty good at Cinema 4D and I'm only using this tranny software to make Sims 4 models because that too was made by trannies (who insist you use blender).
I could easily switch to Maya or 3DS or anything else, but Blender's UI is unspeakably terrible.

OP, if you're an absolute beginner and really need help with the ui, there's a playlist here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MF1

I'm not though, I've used Autodesk Inventor and a bit of Solidworks before. Those were both incredibly easy to grasp, Blender is not

You know that maya is 270 a year and like 99% of jobs require you to know it, right?

Just buy a beginners level course. I think this is the one I started with, though it is probably a bit too dated by now:

No one ever did that, it's just that it's free

Daily reminder blender is only used as a modelling program. In the end, assets have to be converted into maya for interoperability across the pipeline. Thereefore, it is a complete waste of everyone's time trying to be an edgy blender rockstar.

have you tried "just fiddling with it and seeing what buttons do" and if getting stuck searching feature specific tuts?

You want CAD software not 3D programs, there is a huge difference of modeling for the program. Just like painting is different in digital paint. You'll need to relearn some things.

Yes and none of the buttons seem to do much of anything

This is not the way to live you fucking idiot.
The real way is get inspired by artist/work and recreate that. Copy and paste searching in the web for specialistic solutions. You will develop general knowledge automaticlaly with time
