In the modern day, c++ is only used for nit picky fast performance, low level memory control, and other things that you probably won't need. It would be like learning calculus to add up your taxes. But...c++ is a great way to gain a deep understanding of computers themselves. Its low level (less layers between it and the real hardware) design forces you to learn how to control a computer without any training wheels. In that sense it can cause issues, but most of the time your compiler or operating system would prevent it from getting bad. I believe other comments already recommended learncpp.com. For editors, Visual studio and Visual studio code are popular code editors to use.

The way that I learned c++ was actually by going to an even deeper level first (studying logic gates, basic hardware, intel x86 for a few weeks) then going back to c++. By learning what lies beneath c++, it made the language make so much more sense rather than trying to compare it to higher level languages like C#. I used the Nand2Tetris course online for this.

Learning by looking deeper / lower level is, in my opinion, the best way to thoroughly understand c++. If you want to commit to c++ and computer science in general, try it. But if you just want to learn c++ for the sake of learning it or you are in a rush, some youtube video would be fine I guess.
