So hit max level and:
>Piles of quests left to do.
>But also do these 25+ world quests every 24 hours.
>Also these 10 daily quests.
>Also run Torgath as much as possible.
>Also grind gear, as you aren't going to be high enough ilevel to do normal in over half the dungeons, forget anything higher.
>Also do-
You know what, I think I'm already done with this.
1. After hitting 60 and doing the campaign quests the "pile of quests" is completely optional.
2. There is significantly less world quests than in BfA (~50-60% less world quests compared to BfA). There are also hardly any meaningful rewards. The WQ are mostly completely optional.
3. There are exactly three daily quests. Two in the Maw and then the daily emissaries (for which you have 3 days to finish them). All are optional and not really necessary to progress important things like your covenant or legendaries.
4. Torghast is max. 1-3h per week. Each additional run after reaching the weekly cap for soul ash gives you absolutely nothing. No items, no reputation, no currency. Nothing. This will change when the endless mode comes, but there will only be cosmetic rewards for this...so again, completely optional.
5. For dungeons, you're right. But you can always use the LFG tool to skip normal or even heroic dungeons.
In the end it is very similar to BfA. You can do all important daily and weekly activities with a total of ~3-4h effort per week. If that doesn't work out, there are catch up mechanisms for everything.
I had a lot of time over the weekend and I only started Shadowlands on Saturday. I am 60 now, my ilvl is 176 (higher is hardly possible so far) and there is nothing more to do. I am now waiting for the weekly reset and that's it. The addon is a bad joke in my eyes. Instead of azerite bonuses there are now covenant skills. This is exactly the same in principle. There are less than half of new zones compared to BfA, less dungeons and generally less to do. The whole thing feels more like a big update for BfA than a new addon.
