I have a Xiaomi redmi note 8 pro phone, a phone I would like to unlock the bootloader on. I don't know if anyone did this operation according to your "manual", I practically don't understand anything. It would be better to make another one more understandable, this more confusing than helpful.
well we are here to help. which part do you not understand? the very first thing you need to do is enable oem unlock bootloader which is what the first 4-5 steps are describing. did you get that far at least?

I am authenticated with the Mi account. I don't know how to unlock "MI Unlock". Without this I can't continue.
so the above guide is just a copy and paste of this guide:https://twrpupdate.com/unlock-bootloader-of-mi-device/. it has all the pictures included that might help.

and if you can please tell us exactly where you are stuck or confused. just remember the more details you give us the better we can help.
