Flip Normals has changed names so many times in the past decade that I have no idea what it's called today or what it was called before and I'm starting to suspect it's in the witness protection agency.

I feel bad for newcomers because you just have to use the Force a lot of times when using Blender.

Also, I was once following a laptop disassembly video step by step. Half-way through, he stops and turns the laptop over several times in confusion. He was just winging it for the video.

I had half a donut and was progressing in harmony. Then, everything changed when the update nation attacked.

Always always check what version of blender the tutorial is for! Later versions have automated and fixed so much annoying shit that you had to do/fix manually in older versions. Blender 5.1 is way different to 2.8! Also it doesn't matter what menu it's in because you can just search for that tool with the search function, bind it to spacebar.

Blender is actually amazing now (>5.0) and I feel like lots of people tried 2.8 and got scared because it was janky and it turned them off Blender forever.
