There's quite a lot on the dnn bible and im unsure which one to trust nor understand the process to monero safely to not damage my opsec. Futhermore upon buying monero where should I go from there. Transfer it to a different wallet? Process, at least to me, seemed unclear in the dnnb so just asking here for help.

Thanks

hey mate - kycnot.me has a pretty good grading of clearnet options to convert other crypto to monero.

personally i wouldn't want a kyc exchange being aware that i am buying xmr just for potential worst case scenarios. buy a low transaction fee crypto like litecoin or something:

LTC from exchange --> your off exchange private wallet --> use converter to swap to xmr(kycnot.me) --> send to your xmr wallet ---> DarkNet Market

I'm just learning... what is "your off exchange private wallet"? I've read a bunch of wallet stuff this morning and trying to understand what I need. Thanks.

use localmonero and buy with cash in mail. should be most private. many reputable and long serving vendors in there. takes a bit extra time but for privacy it is the way to go

Handing over cash makes me queasy.

is there any kind of protection against scammers?

or is reviews the only reassurance?
