Things are slowly getting better with me and darktable. I’ve been using it for a year now and have learned a lot about RAW development, tonal values and colors. A lot of things are still brittle to handle, but that’s probably due to the complexity. The FOSS community is/was very helpful the whole time.
Especially the YT videos of Boris Hajdukovic @s7habo or Bruce Williams @Bruce_Williams have proven to be very helpful in understanding and learning.
