The vast majority of chess players have either no opening knowledge or limited opening knowledge. Mine is way above average and still infinitely far away from complete.
also btw, check out the YouTube channel agadmator, he posts daily games with analysis, aimed at the more recreational player rather than masters, but with enough analysis to get a strong understanding of the positions. It's easy watching, he's a really cool guy, and you'll gradually improve your openings and tactics if you watch his vids, he's analysing high quality games with good engines.
