That's why you start in high school or college. At that age you are naive enough, have more patience and time to learn this exhausting type of work. I spent one summer in high school just to learn how to upload files via FTP. I would go once a week to an internet cafe (no internet at home) and I'd try to use shareware software(FileZilla did not exist yet) or upload files with Internet Explorer to some free hosting service, but nothing would work. When school started, a CS teacher overheard me asking a colleague about uploading files and recommended I use Total Commander's built-in FTP feature. From that day on, I knew how to upload files. I honestly don't know what to recommend. I'd say use Linux because a lot of tutorials are doing that. But Linux might bring even more troubles, or you could be exchanging one set of problems for another. macOS might be a good compromise. For me it was difficult learning how to use computers and how to program them. But I find it rewarding to solve problems and that gets me through the pain.
