I also dislike Magento, I switched to WooCommerce and I'm really satisfied with it, no issues.

This was the issue that forced me to switch: https://github.com/magento/magento2/issues/21201

Summary: A brand new installation didn't work even though the server passed the requirements.

Their response was that:

> The GitHub issue tracker is intended for Magento Core technical issues only. Please refer to the Community Forums.

And I was not crazy, even after the issue was closed others reported same problems:

> I have exact same issue. Already wasted one whole days , then saw this post.

> I have the same issue. Wasted whole day on it, did fresh install twice. Then came to this from another report that was closed.

> have the same exact issue, first use of Magento. searching for a solution without luck.

So, multiple people had problems fresh installing Magento on a new server, Magento installer says installation is successful and all requirements are met, then it proudly redirects you to your broken home page.
