Like I understand the basics of moving pieces and check and checkmate and some things like queen can't move like a night and if a pawn gets to the end it can become any piece and how every piece can move and take other pieces
You should join the beginners chess club, a lot of players like you and those who know more all trying to improve. Some of us help others improve also. You might have fun while learning chess!
Don't get discouraged. Chess is hard, esp. when you're a raw beginner. To get better at chess, you're going to have to read some books aimed at beginners. Reading Yasser Seirawan's Winning Chess series of books is a good way to start. Since it can be frustrating trying to improve all by yourself, you might also want to consider joining a chess club, if available in your area.

I like the idea of not making a fuss about rating for a while during learning would be a great idea.

Welcome to chess. No matter how good you think you are. There is someone who is miles better than you
What you need to do: use your time and think.
What you are doing right now is the opposite: you play random moves in a a couple of seconds.
Look at this game:
https://www.chess.com/game/live/121276084620?username=i-probablywon
On move 8, black blundered away his knight with Nxe3. What you needed to do is think, spot that the knight can be taken for free. Instead, you made a completely random move (Qc2) which proved to be the worst move in the position, losing a queen and a rook immediately.
Don't play random moves. Use your time and think.
I just guess and have no idea what im doing. especcially when I'm on the game report and it talks about how good the defending and stuff is.
