Hello and welcome!  :)

Hello,
We were all "newbies" at one time.

The offical bureaucracy can sometimes be agonisingly slow.  But they do get to you.
By now (early September), they may have gotten to processing your application.

A number of EU residents are applying for visas before Brexit, so the Home Office may have a backlog of applications to process.

Be patient and they and hopefully they will get to you soon.
