One main reason MTB/gravel riders upgrade to 1x (one by) drivetrain is to simplify the derailleur adjustments. This bike can be upgraded to 1x later, but would require upgrading the rear hub/wheel. There's nothing wrong with 3x drivetrain on this bike. In my opinion, 1x is more of a quality-of-life upgrade, others might tell you 1x also saves weight.

This is an XC (cross country) bike, thus the long stem and flat bar. For fit, if you feel you are leaning forward too much or stretching to reach the grips, especially if you ordered a size too big, first thing is shorten that stem. It's a $10 fix. If you feel you're still reaching, then change the bar to something with a rise and backsweep. Plenty of options on Amazon for $20 - 30.
For function, ditch those pedals and get something better like Fookers or even cheaper alternatives. Your feet would probably slip off these stock pedals going down trails and you won't enjoy your rides.
For comfort, look at the grips and saddle. These are very personal preferences and only you can tell what's comfortable for you, unless you pay a bike fitter to measure your sit bones and such. I personally hate flared grips that comes on this bike. They flared part is always twisting away and you constantly have to fight it to twist it back in position. This is another easy $10 fix to get some lock-on grips.
I've linked some of my favorite budget parts on Amazon a couple of pages back.
The rest of the bike components are perfectly fine as-is for beginners. Ride it until you feel the need to upgrade to better parts later.

My front brake needs some adjustment, outside of the wheel disk seems touching the break a tiny bit. Not sure how to adjust that, will do some research later.
--just found some youtube video about the adjustment, seems quite simple:

I think it's 30 days to dispute with cc? I need to look this up. I hope camping world isn't going out of business. ,
For adjustments, you can adjust the saddle height/setback/tilt, shifter and brake lever positions on the bar, centering brake calipers, front and rear derailleurs, and tire pressure. The coiled fork also has adjustment knobs, but they really don't do much. I know as I have this exact fork on 2 other bikes. To make real adjustments on a mountain bike fork, upgrade to an air fork later. As for the other adjustments mentioned above, they each have their own videos on YT...tons of them. Any of those videos would do a better job at explaining than I could. I believe I've already linked to derailleur adjustment videos previously, which would be the most difficult one out of the above.
