What are the absolute easiest ways to acquire BTC

What are the absolute easiest and fastest ways to get bitcoin if you're a total noob and non tech savvy. I'm thinking

1. Bitcoin ATM? It sound like they use KYC though even if you pay with cash. Does this take time to set up or do you have instant access to your coins? It sounds like they charge upwards of 20% once you pay the ATMs fees and the crypto partners fees
2. Coinbase/gemini but this requires verification procedures that can take a while?
3. Buying bitcoin through cash app
4. I see this service 'strike' recommended in search but I've never heard of it before. Is it legit? How long does it take from signup to being able to withdraw coin
5. Moonpay? It sounds like they charge like 20% though
6. paxful. There are some sellers on paxful that only charge like 5%, but to my knowledge paxful has 1. KYC which probably takes time and 2. has a $15 withdraw fee for withdrawing bitcoin from the market

Is there any better option? Bitcoin is supposed to be decentralized but every single one of the above options requires KYC which probably takes several days to verify. I remember this service that used to exist that allowed you to deposit cash and get bitcoin almost instantly for a relatively small percentage but I can't remember what it was called

Thanks
