To be honest, I only really learnt A, C, D, E, and G at first. Of the minors, I learnt only A minor, D minor and E minor. Those 8 chords are enough to play a lot of songs and even start coming up with your own songs. It wasn't until much later (like a year or two, if I remember correctly) that I even bothered with F. Once I could play barred chords with ease, I was able to play any Major chord and any minor chord, including B and B minor. Playing F Major became a lot easier at that point as well. I know that playing barred chords is a little difficult for beginners but developing the strength to fret them is a MASSIVE step up in the world of chords and rhythm playing.
