IBKR learning curve

Is it just me? How is IBKR experience for you so far? I have to admit I am struggling with the IBKR platform. I just find it very difficult to absorb or process the information in the format that's used, or smoothly conduct a paper trade without having to click in and out of windows. Maybe its just my neurospicy brain, but does anyone else experience this? Im trying to determine if its worth it to perhaps pay a little more for a smoother, more user friendly platform designed for options; or should I suck it up and buckle down til I can really get it on IBKR? it seems like the general consensus is that they are the best, so I feel like maybe I'm missing something?

Ive sorta been looking for standalone tools for charting and visualizing p/l curve on options, which i think would make it alot easier, but there's so much out there's, it's hard to filter. Any advice from anyone who has hit this wall?
