The infallibility is very limited. It is only when they are speaking, always written first, ex cathedra. laterally ‘from the chair’ as in the chair of St. Peter. They do so very rarely.
A good article from Catholic Answers may help you to understand what Papal Infallibility is and why it is so important.
Oh....I see...when he is sitting in the chair he is infallible....the rest of the time he is full of....like the current Pope.
>> “The Pope is only infallible on questions of FAITH and MORALS” <<

Popes know nothing of Faith, nor morals, or they wouldn’t be popes.

I am not a roman Catholic.
I have only the greatest respect for the Roman Catholic believers.
Peter is considered the first Pope. Peter was given the keys of the kingdom, what he bound on earth was also bound in Heaven. If you believe this and if you believer that Popes after Peter were inheritors of those same keys then you must also believe that Popes are infallible. They would be infallible because the decisions they make are honored in Heaven.
If you are not a Roman Catholic then it doesn’t make any difference. I say that understanding that mainstream “Protestant” religions claim a part of the same Apostolic faith. If you are a Protestant I can see no way to dismiss the theology of Papal infallibility. If you don’t accept it then find a church you can believe in. Don’t make fun of people who are trying to live close to The Lord.
If the administrators of the Holy Roman Catholic Church are wrong, if they have assumed authority they do not have then God will sort it out later, it is not my job to do so.
I pray for the Pope. I do not pray for him because I believe he is an authorized inheritor of the keys of Peter but because he is at the head of a large group of believers, I do not want him to lead them astray, I hope he leads people to Christ.
I hope there are many ways to Christ and that all the different churches will all lead people to Christ.
Perhaps there is only one church that is the “true” church like nearly all churches claim they are but I hope that all churches will bring the rest of us to that true church with The Lord at the head of it.
We may all not agree on some things but let us all agree that The Lord is Risen and is Lord, that would be a good start.
