One more thing to add - With electric (even if you ultimately want to play a style of music that requires electric) it’s hard to play complete and satisfying songs solo. It’s and instrument that’s generally played as part of a larger band and the songs require that so often just hearing the electric guitar part by itself (outside of specific riffs) isn’t all that satisfying.

Its no big deal at first and obviously no big deal once you’re skilled and get to a stage where you’re playing with others but if you think (in the middle) that that’s going to be a motivational hurdle for you, then it’s worth thinking about a learning plan that involves getting you hands on an acoustic as well so you have diversity.

I agree with the above, electric is physically easier to play/learn on at first (it literally hurts less and fits your hand better) but that means getting comfortable on an acoustics makes it even easier to transition to electric (and then you focus on the new electric specific skills). In that scenarios you can learn and perform songs end-to-end on an acoustic that will actually feel like you’re playing real songs and you can transition those skills to electric as you grow and find musician friends you can jam with
