What's the general approach, if any, to 4v4?

I've been enjoying ViBE's Bronze-to-GM protoss guide, learning to do macro for the first time in a systematic way, but I'm a casual noob in that I also like to play 4v4 random games. But I've noticed it is hard, if not sometimes infeasible, to macro and max out by 11 minutes (of Stalkers, like in ViBE's videos) on an crowded 8-player map, where 4 vs 1 army fights can happen at an expansion any time. Are there any equivalent 4v4 strategies, or is it more accepted that solo 4v4 random is basically just for fun and chaos, kind of like Quickplay in Overwatch, etc.? On the other hand, the more experienced/ranked players seem to fare better than others in said chaos. So I figure that by working through the rest of ViBE's videos that will indirectly help improve my 4v4 games too. But should I be applying the 1v1 techniques and methods to 4v4, or should I just make DT's and Carriers like everyone else seems to be doing?
