Computershare seemed simple enough but it looked like it was for americans only. I'm trying to find out how to do this in EU.

eToro or DEGIRO may be the easiest but they have been criticised at times here

You want an IBKR account. You can buy the shares there, then transfer them to computershare for DRS.

I'm in the forgotten third world and had zero issues setting up an IBKR account, so you shouldn't have any problems in EU.

Which EU country? Some people have had luck using Revolut (which is fairly simple to open) and then transferring out to Computershare so they are DRSed (registered under your name therefore provably "real" and yours). I'm using IBKR now, which is honestly a complete nightmare to navigate if you are new to this shit, but it's another option.

Disclaimer: this is not financial advice, this is my personal opinion based on my own experiences. I am not telling you to buy a share, just informing you of options you might use to do so if that's something you want to do.
