What about gearfaggotry? Fancy shit takes better photos, look at image quality and physical features here, google "camera-name failure/problem", and decide if it's worth your money or if you want to actually carry that shit around

Common knowledge is that almost nobody uses an ISO setting above 12800.
K, now you're done with the gear section. Don't worry about further autism. When it comes to equipment, keep questions simple and answers simpler, make your own decisions and do your own research. NEVER ask another photographer about gear. Ever.
Photography is a recording method, like writing. There are a number of things you could do with a pen. You could sketch, draw, paint, smear ink around, engrave a soft enough object, design a building, take notes of goings-on, transcribe a court case, or draw a dick on something. You can be taught the alphabet and that ink comes out the front when you put it on something, and learn which inks stick on what surfaces and how. That's like learning "photography", but it's actually simpler than pens.
If you want to learn what you can do with photography, use your imagination, and start looking at what other people did with photography. You might be lucky enough to be able to imagine writing a book despite never seeing one before, but most authors known today were inspired by reading other peoples books.
