JavaScript is easier to learn in my opinion. You will get a lot of people saying otherwise and a lot agreeing so it really depends on what you want to do with the programming language.

Java, sure. Java could be "verbose", but this turn it more "intuitive" (consequently easy to learn). Java have more options to work: Javascript is a browser language (will work only for web applications). Is harder learn OO (objects orientation) with Javascript. With Java you can "view" entire concepts clearly. Javascript is not bad, but I think is not good to start learning. Obs.: Javascript is totally different from Java.

Java is much more versatile though.

To learn the fundamentals of programming easily - I will recommend you to learn - JavaScript. - But, If you want to start your journey based on which platform you will work on - then - for web development - learn JavaScript for Front-End, Java for Back-End - for Software Development - learn Java (PC & Mobile App)
