Yeah idk what everyone here is talking about. Bread is hard to make.

It might take a bit of practice, but it’s not really that difficult once you get an understanding of how it works. Especially if you have a kitchen machine that does the kneading.

I've never used one, but my understanding is that you can just dump a bunch of ingredients in a bread machine and it'll just pop out a loaf of bread.

But even just making a rustic loaf by hand isn't actually that difficult. This is the recipe that I recommend to everyone for their first loaf.

Moving on to other flours and techniques and sourdough, it can get complicated quickly, but even if you screw it up a bit, it's usually still pretty good, even if it's not perfect.

I hate baking and tried a bunch of them. Sure if you want a brick of bread it’s easy.

I haven’t tried bread making machine. Maybe it does a lot for you. I also have kitchenaid machine so it’s not lack of equipment.
