Easy to install and use?
Yep.
About the same as all the others really. Here's a guide for doing it on a PC: https://itsfoss.com/install-debian-easily/
For installing on a Raspberry Pi (3/4) you can use this guide: https://raspberrytips.com/install-debian-on-raspberry-pi/
@Smaugbtc - if you want to learn what it's like to use the OS, I recommend first doing everything in a Linux Virtual Machine, e.g. using VirtualBox software on a Windows/Mac system.

Hit me up if you have questions. I can also tutor people on Linux.
I think I’ll just install it. I really don’t use the computer for anything so if I need to know how to do something I can just figure it out as I need.
