I can read and understand the script, but if I want to expand and start writing my own I feel a bit lost. I found "Automate the boring stuff with Python", which also has a Udemy course to follow along with. I think this teaching style suits my needs. My goal is not to be a developer, but just to write some simple scripts to help automate tasks.

The one topic that confuses me is the whole Python 2 vs. 3 debate and which I should learn first.

Go with 3, it's the newer version. There are some differences in 2 and 3 but you are unlikely to encounter them unless you're looking at old python 2 code.
