XT-2 from Nikon - what learning curve?

Finally, a mirrorless camera is being released that appears to meet my needs. Light, fast fps and equally fast AF and in the style of a DSLR. The XT-2 has hit my hot button and I am keen to try it out. I would have preferred Full Frame, but APS-C is fine.

I would keep my Nikon D750 but sell my Nikon D610 and buy the XT-2 (with 2 of the holy trinity Crop sensor equivalent lenses - 16-55 2.8 (24-70/84), 50-140 2.8 (70-200 )

My question is, what learning curve would I have to go through, coming from a Nikon FF, to a Fuji XT-2 (and the whole Fuji system). I am looking for real life experiences, not just fanboy speak of "Fuji is easy"

I do dog and equine sport/dog and horse portrait photography mainly, with a few weddings now and again (all paid)

Many thanks in advance.
