I have been searching up white openings but they don't really work, so i need some white openings that are good for beginners

the classic by-the-book Pawn(s) to e4 and then d4 is what I usually go by.

Although I'm kinda a beginner too so I probably need this help as much as you do lol.

Play whatever you like because the most important part is enjoying the resulting positions. I do have two recommendations though..

The Italian Opening:

The King's Gambit:

At the beginner level, you don't really need to learn opening theory. Learning basic opening principles (control the center, develop pieces etc.) is certainly important, but you probably shouldn't be worrying too much about opening theory at your level. It's better to focus on tactics (to improve pattern recognition), basic endgames and analyzing your finished games. After you've gotten to about 1000, maybe then learn an opening.

That said, maybe the main line Italian Game is pretty beginner friendly.

Openings matter a lot less than you think. Your losses have nothing to do with openings, and everything with silly blunders in the middlegame. If you change your opening, nothing will change.

For a real beginner, I'd recommend e4 and if black plays e5 then white plays Nf3 and Nc3. Then Bc4 or b5 then castles followed by d3, Be3 or g5, Qe2 Re1, Rd1 then think.

A good opening for a beginner is one where you can get your pieces out fast with good central control. The London system is a good example of this, the open Sicilian, the scotch four knights. Anything with developing knights before bishops too
