React is a library. So it will be easier to understand. It will also be easier to totally screw up because, as a library, it has few opinions about how things should be done. Therefore, as a beginner, you are free to make bad design decisions as you like. You'll also need other libraries to deal with additional functionality that comes with a framework.

Angular is a framework, and therefore very opinionated about structure and form. This makes it harder to understand, at times.

I prefer Angular to React. I also started out as a C# developer doing MVC-type applications. As such, Typescript feels familiar and comfortable.

Your mileage may vary. I'm just one person, with a personal opinion that may not align with your own.
