US immigration is difficult. Honestly if you don’t have a career that makes you eligible for an H1B visa I don’t know what options you have coming from Europe. Even with an H1B eligibility, it can be difficult. Unlike most places, in the US you need to first get a job and then apply for the visa, all before actually coming here to work legally. Most countries are the other way around, where you get the work visa then apply for a job

Yeah H1B waitlists and application limits make it really difficult to secure sponsorship as few employers hire with a 6-month lag.

EB-2 with a masters degree or Diversity Immigrant program are best routes if you can't find a sponsor or a spouse.
