Saying that either one is easier or harder would not make much sense. Back-end deals with different problems than front-end, and is "easier" in some aspects but "harder" in others.

Backend tends to be a bit slower and less hype-driven. You certainly won't get anything close to the almost half-yearly hype loops of javascript where you basically have to append "2021" to every search to get an up-to-date result. Of course things still change, otherwise we'd still be using COBOL, but it happens at a much slower pace.
