I can NOT bother to learn music theory or how to play with a teacher or watch lessons on youtube.. yet the craving for playing an instrument is here, almost painful.. which instrument, easy to master yet not meme-esque like picrel, should I buy??

You literally already know how to play the piano. I don't knownif you knew that. Its the whole point of the instrument.

Everything requires a bit of dedication and education. Including synths that may automate and loop a lot of parts for you. Even futzing around just being a sound engineer. Just bear with it.

I've been learning piano low-intensively for a couple of years. You dont have to learn notes or music theory for any instrument, it's just reptile brain conditioning, like learning to walk or play tennis. Practice some movements a couple of times, take a little break for a couple of minutes and you will have improved when you try again, that's how the brain works. As soon as you can play some sequence fast, you should try to so always rather than aim to play perfectly or correctly, the body and brain is lazy so when forced to things many times quickly the reptile brain will iron what you're doing out to one smooth effective movement automatically.

Notes are just an alphabet for writing down and reading back music, it's 100% optional

For piano you can download midi files and open them up in midiano and learn any song with a piano roll. Free as in beer
