What's difficult about Debian?
Linus Torvalds admitted he has not been able to install it. Somehow the installer looks like to be hard.
He said that in 2007. Things have changed a lot since then, Debian is as easy to install as any other big distro (most of them, including Debian, use the Calamares installer nowadays)
Maybe not the right thread to ask, and you don't need to answer, but how did install (on any distro) work pre Calamares? Even though I tried Linux the first time over 15 years ago, I think I never not used Calamares
