Hello friends, the title is mostly self explanatory. I would like to start programming but I also feel like I am not very smart, so I would like a programming language that is easier to grasp than others. That considered I don't hope to be able to learn something "powerful" but it would be nice to still be able to do some useful things. Something I would love to do is make games, I know those are usually made in C, which is a very difficult one, but maybe some simpler games can be made with other languages.

I think C# was easiest for me to learn. I'll go a bit against the grain and say python was more challenging for me in particular. Setting up interpreters and using pip and venvs wasn't my thing, but you may have no issue.

That's interesting how for some people the same languages can be the opposite. Maybe I'll start with one and if it goes poorly I'll try the opposite side.
