How to "smooth" my vector shape?

Help / Question

I was asked to create a logo for a research group, but I have zero experience with painting or design, and I only downloaded Krita a couple of days ago (so yes, this took me a while).

I created everything using painting layers, but I now realize I should have used vector layers to make an SVG. I converted my layers into shapes, but now I have a lot of extra points, as you can see in the image.

I would like to “smooth” or simplify these shapes so they have fewer points and cleaner curves. I’m not sure what the correct term is, but I want them to look more polished and not crooked. The design includes several shapes, mostly ellipses and conical segments.

I don’t have the time or skill to adjust each point manually, I’ve already tried.

If possible, please explain the process in very simple terms, as this is not my area.
