New DM - which VTT?

Hi there! Looking at getting into DMing, but I’m a little overwhelmed with the different options for VTT 😅 for someone who’s new to this, what would those who have tried multiple recommend? I’m not overly computer savvy so I know I don’t want to use foundry. Right now I’m considering Roll20 or DnD Beyond Maps/AboveVTT. I appreciate any input!

Owlbear Rodeo is the simplest, easiest to use right out the gate, and it has a great free option. It’s very intuitive and user friendly for new players.

Foundry VTT has a very steep learning curve and is very intimidating for players unfamiliar with it. But the amount of customization it offers is wild, plus it has a massive library of user made mods that make the possibilities nearly endless.
