“pretty dumb that everyone’s acting like the electoral college voting changed anything. ”

You need a crash course in civics.
In the Unite States we dont vote for President we vote for electors. The outcome of that election was originally in dispute

The electoral college, the group that chooses the President elected Joe Biden. This is not in dispute.
all that is left is for Congress to formally count the vote.

Keep in mind the appointment of electors is up to the states. In theory a state can appoint eelctors for whomever they want regardless of outcome of state vote, in fact there is a movement that many states signed too to give all the states electors to the winner of the national popular vote., regardless of who won the state.

Now it is theoretically possible for congressmen to slow things down make trouble etc. But to say “pretty dumb that everyone’s acting like the electoral college voting changed anything.” (I assume you include Mitch Mcconell who congratulated biden after electoral colege win)
shows a profound lack of understanding of elementary US civics
