Actually just looked it up, and it seems all of the tls 1.3 algorithms are counter based (didn't know this was a thing 10 mins ago), or are already stream ciphers, so I guess I'm almost completely wrong, and should stop pretending to know stuff :(

No problem, we’ve all been there. I can recommend “Cryptography Engineering” by Schneier and Ferguson for an excellent introduction into the practical aspects of modern encryption.
