Title is pretty self explanatory, but basically I don't know what the heck get services are. I don't know when to use them. And it seems there's thousands of get services. i look up some tutorials and there's get services for EVERYTHING. (it seems)

You should use them whenever they are useful. For example if you need to store data between player play sessions, use DataStoreService

but again memorizing services is just a waste of time seriously
you don't need to know all of them. you just use one when you need to

flaming a mf that doesn't know how to script... 😞 Anyway, I didn't really know what a get service was, so how in the hell am I going to know that im not supposed to remember them, and that there isn't really a common one, you just use them all.
