Do you have any recommendations for how to get into NetHack? I've tried playing it in the past but it seems a bit obscure and incomprehensible to me.

We have the same experience then XD

In my experience, the learning curve felt similar to Dwarf Fortress.

For starters, there's the Guidebook and the Wiki.

You probably also want to keep a Keyboard Reference handy.

This guy has a full run you can watch,(or not, that's LOOONG)

For me, I think it was just a combination of watching people play and banging my head against it until things start to sort of make sense. Kind of like dwarf fortress lol.
