No site is particularly difficult to use. You just sign up, select a user name, download the poker client to your laptop, make a deposit and start to play. Thats all very simple and can usually be done in 5 minutes or so. Which site, you should choose, depends very much on your goals. If you just want to have some fun, then GG Poker is a good choice. Always lots of games running and fun stuff like Daniel Negreanu dancing on the table, when someone just won a big pot.
However if your goal is to get good at poker, then I recommend PokerStars, and I also recommend investing in a tracker like PT4. They you collect all your hands there, and after a while you have a big enough sample, that you can start to look for leaks. Its also very easy to export a hand from PT4 and share it in the tournament or cash game hand analysis forum and get feedback from other players.

I would reccomend GG Poker:
1. The most important! Welcome promotion = Honeymoon Promotion. Absolutely the best starting promo. You do it for the first 30 days, getting bonuses. Even if you do not complete the latest, hardest tasks, you are still able to build up your starting bankroll from lets say $20 to $100-200. Just google "GG Poker honeymoon" to find info, tips etc.
2. In general, I would say GG Poker is oriented towards recreational players - very high rake and tons of promos giving back part of the rake. I believe it's ok for recreational player/begginer (and not so easy to profit for a pro).

Actually the rake for MTTs is lower than on most other sites. But rake for cash games and the Battle Royal SnG is pretty high. So it depends, which games you want to play. The main issue for me is, that they make it difficult for players to learn and improve by banning trackers. They have something called PokerCraft, which is supposed to be a build-in alternative, but it has so many deliberate limitations, that its more show than go. So I would not say, its difficult to be a winning player on GG Poker. But its definitely one of the worst sites, if you are new and want to BECOME a winning player.Mario7 said:
Good morning, everyone!
I started playing poker in 2018, and in my opinion, it is incredibly important for beginners to study hard and practice. There is no such thing as an "easier" or "harder" site because it completely depends on the individual player. Some players simply find it easier to win on a specific platform.
For example, I know excellent players—including coaches for poker stables—who have highly winning graphs on PokerStars but lose money on GGPoker. It varies from player to player, as you have to adapt to the software and the field. Personally, I find it much easier to win on WPT Global, while I struggle to win on ACR.
The best approach is to play on several different sites to find out which platform is the most profitable for you.
