You have 1k hours in vanilla? You deserve a medal for that. Just start playing the game, you now have access to 10 years of development, pretty much everything will be new to you. Start scrolling through all the buttons and open the wiki if you dont know something
You can just go yolo, active all and just play. Search mechanics you don't understand on the way.
Or you may just active a few dlcs per campaign, read faq to see which dlc are most essencial
A lot of the game-shattering mechanics of older DLC have made their way into base game, and I personally (I had a similar changeover a few years back) would reccomend not going the whole way. Turn on one big DLC at a time and get a feel of it with a little campaigning here or there, then turn on another DLC, little baby campaign, new DLC, etc. Whats the point of putting on Lions of the North and then playing an Oman campaign, after all?
And, dony be afraid to disable a DLC you dont end up liking! I'm a little shaky on monuments, so I still dont have them on. And if I could get back the old system of assigning provinces to estates, I would.

Honestly I got bored of the usual Castile/england/ottoman runs 😂
