Welcome! I think you'll find that the clunkiness dissolves into the background pretty quickly. Peoples' biggest stumbling block after signup is often that you can find communities with the same name on different websites, and that kind of offends some folks' sensibilities. Coming from OGFT, though, I think you can already appreciate that Reddit had multiple communities fighting over names anyway.
The admins here have been absolute power houses, so I know they'll be only too quick to provide any help that you need, or answer questions about the site or nuances about the underlying tech. And some of us regulars have been around here for a few years now, and even predate the site, thanks to the way federated services can communicate across site types (I started on Mastodon, for instance, and have been kicking the tires on nodeBB).
It's a fun little experiment in internet anarchism.
