Like you I was worried about flash and bought a led ring, after a short while I succumbed and bought a flash, macro results have never been better, and flash is very easy to setup

try camera and flash on manual, f8, 1/160, iso 100, take a pic and increase/decrease flash power till your happy

there are lots of you tubes on it, try micael widell

With the best will in the world, not the answer I wanted to hear 😂. But you've been there and I need to accept that. Thank you.

+1 on the flash. I spent quite a bit of research before I made any purchases, and a budget manual flash and a diffuser did the trick.
