The usage of traditional Chinese characters on the Internet is inconsistent. How to learn?

Traditional Chinese characters are actually not difficult. Now that the network is so developed, you can find many dictionary websites or Chinese websites online, such as Baidu Chinese. Most of these websites support pinyin and radical search, which is very convenient.

There are 9 125 1 Chinese characters in China, of which only over 3,000 are commonly used, and the rest are rare characters (including traditional characters and variant characters). So you can learn traditional Chinese characters if you are interested. After all, many ancient books are still traditional.
