What beginner friendly RTS game can you recommend?

As a quick background, RTS is completely new to me. I spend majority of my time in FPS type games but want to branch out a bit and try out something different/new (to me).

Requirements:

  • Somewhat casual (if that’s possible)
  • Somewhat easy to learn
  • Relatively modern with decent graphics (something that looks nice)
  • Runs on Linux (of course) and Steam

It just means having to micromanage a particular unit's actions. I like it more when I can say "patrol this area, return fire and advance a bit if necessary, but no further than this", instead of having to flip back to those units constantly to manage them. IMO it's more thematic anyways for a sci fi game, you're probably going to have units with a basic AI in them in-universe.
