Hate the new operating system, want to change it, questions

Background
I've just switched from a P30 Pro to a Xiaomi 13 Pro, I've never rooted a phone in my life.
I loathe the operating system, it doesn't let me open links in the applications that I want to link them in (I'm trying to open Reddit links in an external app and it will not work no matter what I do, just goes to Chrome or the default Reddit app), the game program doesn't let me swipe the taskbar down to view messages, the notch hiding feature doesn't work.
I don't know how much of this is down to MIUI and how much is down to Android updates but it's terrible. This kind of restriction is exactly what I was hoping to avoid. There hasn't been a single thing I've seen so far that represents and improvement.
Specs
CPU - Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Mobile Platform Octa-core Max 3.19GHz
Android version - 13 TKQ1.220905.001
MIUI version - MIUI Global 14.0.22, also listed is 14.0.22.0(TMBEUXM)
Model - 2210132G
Network is Vodafone
Any more specs needed to answer any of these let me know.
Questions
1. Is it possible to root it?
2. If I root this thing is there a way to install the OS from my previous phone, or some other OS that can easily be customised?
3. If it is possible to root it, how do I do it? I assume there's some guide.
4. If I attempt to root it, is it easy to reset it if I **** it up? I had a horrible experience with bricking a PSP trying to root that about 15 years ago and I'm loathe to repeat it.
