It can be played almost entirely single player from the beginning now, and the story is really good after ARR (which is serviceable for setting up the world).
There is also a free trial that goes through Stormblood (the second expansion) so you can try without paying anything
I started playing in August of last year and finished endwalker (the last expansion before dawntrail) in January. It’s very “easy to get into” imo but the base game is a slog for sure. If you don’t mind putting in time (or as the other comment suggests, money) then yes, it’s a very easy game to get into. It’s my first mmo btw.
Is this game easy to get into if you’ve never played it since the game launched?

You’d have to get through a couple hundred hours of main story quest to get to current content.
So if you like JRPG stories and/or extensive character dress-up: Great idea do recommend
If you like endgame content and raiding and stuff: It’s not the best and probably not worth the couple hundred hours of MSQ
