In my alternative, web design is the most interesting thing I would like to do. What should a web designer know?
HTML - CSS - Figma - Github, what more?

In addition to what you mentioned:
JavaScript is important
Php is good
Database solution such as MySQL, or node.js (or both)

As web designer you need to know Adobe, Figma, Sketch and so on.
Some basic html/css knowledge will help.
Only if you want to be web developer you should go with programming languages and for basics, PHP still is best choice because of wordpress.
It all comes down to what exactly do you want to do?
Sell webdesigns, websites or build them for yourself?

The things you mentioned are important, basic starting points.
Are you going for full stack? If so, then you want a programming language, some PHP, data structures, and a database language.
So, something like:
- Javascript (and a design based framework).
- PHP (mostly for wordpress themes & plugins).
- MySQL or NoSQL.

Another important skill I forgot to mention earlier would be getting familiar with Mozilla developer network. If you get stuck on something you can look up the documentation. I don’t know how to do everything by memory, but I strive to know what’s possible. Knowing what’s possible enables you to search documentation. MDN is an invaluable resource and it’s free!

Node js is the most in demand developer skills. It helps in building real-time applications, the Internet of Things, and microservices.

I can only remember print('') Everything else I swear I look up each time, unless I can already see it on my ide, lol, I'm inspired by the people that went before us programming without search engines and stack overflow. Being good at programming is within everyone's reach now.

Sorry but I disagree. If OP really wants to be a web designer (not a developer), knowing mysql and node won’t be much of a use. For personal skill development, why not? But i doubt his employer or clients would ever ask for those.
Pretty accurate in real world. Follow this OP.

With asynchronous processing which makes it super fast

Oh well, I do know more than one designer who would not want to change their trade, and are freaking awesome (is an understatement)! Alas, I can’t afford them most of the times.I included those because no one wants to be a web designer for long.
I know many think designers are inferior or something, but it’s not correct to assume that. They can make as much as a developer might make, if not more. These dudes and dudettes can take a boring old product and turn it into a dream.
I am only revealing this because I don’t want op to feel inferior about his passion. Please pursue in your dream, op.. and make sure to not end up as a “wp guy”. We need people like you.

Excuse me, but how does asynchronous processing make anything faster? Please explain, or refrain from spreading misinformation.

Asynchronous processing is the essence of nodejs. The main thread doesn't need to wait for io operations to finish before moving forward. Please don't comment if you have no technical knowledge.

and? that makes things faster?!
LOL
What about multi threading??
To be honest, you don’t even use the asynchronous nature of js most of the times. If you are using await, you are waiting anyway.
I love js, make no mistake.. but what you are saying isn’t correct atall.

Indeed it does, google is your friend if you want to clear your fundamental concepts.
Sorry to say but if you are using await most of the times then nodejs is not for you no matter how much you love it.
Multi threading is a different concept with it's own benefits, don't get confused.

What? LOL. Bro, I do know what I am talking about. Don’t run away like wind. Answer me.
Edit: Show me how your “asynchronous blah” is faster than “multi threaded blah”.
I feel funny even saying this because it doesn’t matter. It is not about being faster anyway lmao. You would may be use workers for that lol.

First you say asynchronous doesn't make anything fast and then start comparing it with multi threading and now you are saying it's not about being faster. Make up your mind first.What? LOL. Bro, I do know what I am talking about. Don’t run away like wind. Answer me.

Probably you are just high or ignorant. Either way technical stuff is not your cup of tea. Don't be ashamed to google it if you don't know how it works.
