How to trade cryptos anonymously?

Well, we already know that Bitcoin isn't 100% anonymous and can be traced.

That’s why mixers were invented.

Question #1: Do they still work? Are they safe and easy to use? Claude mentioned a few options: Wasabi, Sparrow, and JoinMarket.

To get Wasabi working, you have to install it first...

Question #2: Isn't Monero a better option? How do I trade Monero? Does it have to be via Bisq? Can that be installed on Tails?

One thing that bothers me about the crypto world is that the "solutions" are usually pretty complicated for someone who isn't into security. My mind is 97% occupied with work stuff.

I need no-brainer solutions:

Receive Bitcoin > Send to a mixer > Retrieve the crypto

Or

Receive Bitcoin > Buy Monero > Buy Bitcoin > Retrieve crypto...

If I have to install or configure complicated things, it immediately puts me off.

It can't be things that require me to spend days studying and testing...
