I even had to google what a bubble sort is.
Where can I learn about stuff like this? What are the design patterns and algorhithms i should know? Most of what I know about programming comes from trial and error

thanks! that looks like a good compass for what kind of stuff to look into

Dude, like if you ever used a for loop to sort something, you've likely done either an insertion sort or a bubble sort. Just read >>60533814 and you'll be fine.

are you telling me it's super easy to land a job as a programmer?

bc after reading the first few pages of cracking the code interview I feel like maybe I do have to study computer science or sth. in order to pass these kind of interview questions.

Go on codewars website, really cool and adictive programming challenges. When you complete one you get to see the solution of other people that also completed it.

It ranks you by the number of completed challenges hand their difficulty grades.

It's not. First of all most of the jobs are not even advertised, like 80% of them which means if you don't know people in the industry you are competing for the tiny amount of jobs avail with billions of pajeets and everybody else.

You can also try Codility and Hackerrank they're both used by hiring (esp Codility tests).
