>I feel like those online courses and shit are scams or made for retarded people.
You have to read the reviews of this shit first. Then you gotta buy it. The best language courses are with a live personal tutor.
>For learning Russian, what are some things I need to consider and keep in mind?
Russian language (as well as all Slavic languages) is a completely different concept of language. It differs significantly from the article concept in the direction of flexibility (grammatical cases), many words subject to morpheme in Russian can have gender, time, emotional coloring. There is no need to put artikles and additional words to clarify the context, as in English, their role in Russian is performed by morphology depending on the grammatical case.
Also take into account the fact that even a person with Down syndrome can speak Russian at a basic level.
Please, stop mentioning Ukrainians out of nowhere.

Thanks, this is something I wasn't fully sure of.

I'm personally not fond of classroom-type settings, but I guess I can always try talking to my Russian acquaintances every once in a while.
A personalized teacher can talk to you online via video link via Skype, Discord or some other shit. Just read reviews and research the schools reputation before you pay, that's all.
Here's an example of a school in Russia: https://skyeng.ru/teachers/?from=main_new_menu
I was taught English by an American bro.
Check in your country for a similar one.
You need to start by figuring out your goals, too.

This is not the best, but worth to try: duolingo.com. There is a russian course. It will take more than year to complete, if you practice 15 min every day. On duolingo you learn alphabet and after that lot of words and phrases. What duolingo lacks is grammar lessons or explains why someting is written in russian like it is.
>as well as all Slavic languages
All except the Bulgarian*
Byzantine slavery was not good for them.
Не нужно ехать в эту Раиссю, можешь поехать в любую другую страну пост-СССР, где русский язык является официальным, или преобладает русскоязычное население. Я например прекрасно говорю по русски, хотя в жизни я с россиянами фактически не сталкиваюсь. (но у нас тут достаточно местных русских, с которыми я и выучил язык)
grammar books

Go to Russia and live here, you'll find yourself a KGB sniper Natasha.
There is no point to ask Russians about learning Russian.
