We all were new at everything at one point. Don't be discouraged when trying new things.

And when someone new to a thing shows up in your community for that particular thing, welcome and guide them.
Everyone was a newbie at one point, even people with natural affinity and extraordinary talent. It never pays off to gatekeep your community, it will die and so will the interest of it. Be welcoming. A great teacher can explain really complex stuff in really simple terms. Stay kind.
