Changed battery - slow start?

Replaced my battery (with a Duralast 35 DLG) and started it fine but when I later took it for a drive it felt like I would be able to completely remove my foot from the clutch pedal and nothing was engaging. I instead revved it and it really felt like I had to get the RPMs up to feel the bite point and the few traffic lights that I stopped and went at it felt like it would borderline stall.

Question is, did replacing my battery reset something from the factory or do I now have to anticipate how my car moves now from a standstill?

*fun fact about the battery: this battery replaced the factory battery and is much taller because I had to adjust the harnesses

give it a few days to re-learn how to stay breathing.
