It’s a very different way to process RAWs compared to Lightroom for sure. I suggest watching Bruce William’s tutorials for how to get started, especially because understanding the difference between scene-referred and display-referred workflows is very important.
I also liked this video by A dabble in photography for figuring out a starting workflow.
I would argue as a noob you shouldn’t really bother with display vs scene refered. Just use scene and learn the workflow. For some reason the darktable community is bent on getting way too scientific for simple things, some people just want to edit pictures without diving deep into color science.

Yeah I agree that people should just stick to scene-referred. I just meant people should be aware of it so they use the right modules.
