I really do want to learn and love it. It seems I love all the things which are told about it, but, I think JJ has a tutorial problem. I would really want something which focuses on concepts of it rather than workflows. May be some diagrams? I know that JJ-ists think that it is very easy to understand wall of cli printed text, with ascii trees and hash prefixes in bold, but it really isn't. Especially for target audience of tutorials (folks new to JJ).

https://jj-for-everyone.github.io is the most approachable jj tutorial I've seen. I wouldn't say it focuses on workflows, but it does take a "learn by doing" approach a bit more than the "data model first" approach it sounds like you might prefer.

It's still a young tool, it's not surprising that tutorials are a bit lacking (honestly there are surprisingly many for its age). Maybe be the change you want to see in the world and make one? (Which would be an... interesting... way to learn the tool for sure).

Same. It's how I learned Docker and Kubernetes, study the concepts, then I can ask "what's the specific command to do A,B,C" instead of an open ended "how do I do X".

Have you tried it yet? I found the tutorials a bit convoluted. But just giving it a go for a couple of days gave me more in practice than reading docs for a week could. It's not to say the docs couldn't be better - just maybe it's not as much of a barrier as you think.

Yes, I got lost when trying to sync with remote repo from two machines. I'll give it another try.
