And I still don't really know how to use registers in vim 😂 I just use yy and paste 🥲

I only know how to use them with q. I hope that's a register, otherwise I will look foolish.

They are. Registers are just "named boxes" where you can store some text and/or keystrokes. When yanking and pasting, the unnamed register is used if you don't specify a name (you can still see or edit it explicitly). For recording a macro there is no default register, though. You need to give it a name.
