「ようだ」の情報
In a similar way to みたい, ようだ is used when making observations about something in Japanese. This auxiliary verb is used to express three primary things.
たとえ - Using (A) as an example to highlight the way that (B) looks/is acting.
推定 - Using (A) as a reason for an assumption made about (B).
例示 - Presenting (A) as an example of what (B) is.
ようだ is usually based on direct information/experience, and shows that the speaker has high confidence in what they are saying. It may also frequently appear in its kanji form, 様だ.
ようだ can be used with any verb, い-Adjective, な-Adjective, or noun. However, it requires な before it when used with な-Adjectives, or の when used with nouns.
Although ようだ and そうだ are often used in similar situations, そうだ shows that the speaker has a lot less confidence in their statement than ようだ. Because of this, ようだ is a much better choice when stating things that are obvious/observable by anyone.
Caution
ようだ is considerably more formal than みたい, and is therefore less common in casual conversation.

Hello,
I have a question about one of the example sentences in this lesson :
彼はいつも変な事言っているけど、本当は真面目なようだ。I wonder why there isn’t a particle between 変な事 and 言っている.
I would have put a を there. Would it be wrong ? If not, is it optional for some reason ?
casual
You would be completely correct in putting を there.
But in informal speech (friends) and informal writing (chat, SNS) particles are often omitted when they are obvious from context. I don’t know if there are specific rules, but this take sounds reasonable to me: ellipsis - What are the guidelines for omitting particles? - Japanese Language Stack Exchange.
In this sentence I’m guessing enunciating ことを was too much hassle and so the speaker decided to ditch the を. Since it seems to come from a chat between friends, that sounds fine.

Thank you. I knew you could omit か at the end of questions, but it didn’t occur to me you could drop other particles inside the sentence.
I suppose it’ll become natural once I hear a lot of spoken Japanese.
