Yeah, Timberwolf, although Blender 2.8's UI endeavours to be a bit more mainstream, there are still quirks to get your head around. I'm used to Blender pre-2.8 and am having to re-learn a lot, which is fine: I think it'll have more universal appeal, eventually, because of the UI changes. Particularly the "select-with-left-click" by default will prove less of a hurdle for new users.

Have a look at these - both Andrew Price's introduction and Chocofur's are well worth the time spent.
