For most of my life, I thought that I couldn't learn grammar. I didn't learn the English grammar, and I still can't tell you what the tenses are. Even though I use them.
With German, it is different. I have been making audios about the basics. Things which have been tripping me up since 2018. And I can finally understand them. Just four days, and I already lowered the number of mistakes I make, as I write in German. Today I had an entire page, where I had 4 mistakes, and they weren't about grammar, but about overused words. Yes, I have to work on that, but that is still progress.
So, how can you tackle the grammar, without sucking the life out of yourself? Make an audio in the Paul Noble style. What he does is amazing. He makes you speak, as you repeat words and sentences when you are about to forget them. I think I want to try that out with some other things as well, since I want to make my Alchemy system in my LitRPG based on Chemistry, and not on Mcfantasyland mambo-jumbo, as I have done before. I was never good at chemistry at school, but I now know why.
Chemistry is full of grammar. We call it by another name, but it is grammar. To write a reaction, you have to write a sentence. I didn't realize that in school, but now my eyes are open!
I want to learn, have fun, and acquire German, not learn it! Naturally and for good this time!
Have a great day!

Deutsch ist so eine scheiß Sprache. Ich als Deutscher blicke nicht mal durch, wie soll man das dann bitte richtig lernen.

Was für ich/du/er/sie/es/wie/ihr/sie. Oh man.

Ich finde es ganz toll. Doch ich habe Probleme mit auf und in. Ich weiß, dass etwas sich bewegen muss, aber ich treffe es nicht jedes Mal richtig an. Aber ich werde es lernen!

Strictly speaking, English only has two tenses: past and present. It has the functional equivalent of other tenses, but they're formed by adding auxiliary verbs, rather than conjugating the main verb. So it's easier to understand tenses if you study another language where they actually exist.

I'm learning German as well, but I can't seem to get the hang of the vocabulary.

You get the same effect by talking loudly in German. Only a few Arabian languages sound more like you're angrily cursing at them to non-speakers:ROFLMAO:
Dutch.

Dutch is like German, but uglier. And don't get me started on the abomination that is Luxemburger: it's an ugly Flemish, which is already the ugly version of Dutch.

Sorry for my Benelux friends, you can go ahead and rib me with any French stereotype that you wish, I'll deservedly take them. Your languages are ugly, but I like you and your countries nonetheless, plus making fun of Belgians is sort of a national French sport*, so I just spread the love a tiny bit with the Netherlands and Luxemburg.

*And the reverse is true as well.
