It depends on what you want to do.

Microcontrollers and embedded programming? C.
Programming for game development? C# or C++.
Web development? C# + ASP.NET Core.

It does not matter. Like, at all. Learn whatever floats your boat. Once you know one of them, learning an additional one is going to be so easy, that you'll be bored of all tutorials.

Assuming you have no specific goals: Do you already have programming knowledge?

If not: C# is probably the "easiest" one of all those three and therefore the best choice for understanding the basic concepts of programming. It's also quite popular (e.g. used with the game engine Unity).

In (vanilla) C and C++ there's more pointer stuff and manual memory management. These are two topics which can easily lead to problems and frustrating situations.

Learning and understanding how pointers and memory management work is also a big plus though.
