Unpopular advice but: turn on the menus / use Emacs as a GUI program.
The menus are good and help you with stuff you may want to find, or things you didn’t know you wanted.
Alternatively? Escape X (M-xin “the lingo”): a type-to-find for certain kinds of commands Emacs can do. Can also list the keyboard combinations.
