What drama are you referring to? Bandcamp being sold and half their staff fired? That's shitty, but they still pay artists more than any other platform.
To answer your main question, I'd say Soundcloud is easiest for yourself and listeners.
Both. Build an audience on SoundCloud, offer the same music for sale on Bandcamp. If you don’t like drama then don’t partake (by posting about it elsewhere online or even acknowledging it al all) if you’re just stating to share your music then that’s a lesson you’ll want to learn right now.
