I have been thinking of learning some programming recently, but I don’t feel confident enough. Is there any point in beginning with something like Zig or Go, and switching to something more serious later?

Learing the bases of programming is language agnostic really. You can start even with pseudo code, then learn the language you will like to work with. Just choose any language that seems fun and enjoy the process.
Good luck!
The big parts are philosophy and libraries, learning a language is relatively easy.
Avoid BASIC though, never had much use of the hours I spent on it as a preteen.
I did learn alot of useful stuff when I was playind around with arduinos, and since then the market of fun microcontrollers have expandes quite a bit. Its great to see your code immediatly change stuff in the real world even if its just a basic display connected to a thermometer
Arduino programming is basically C++ with helpers so yeah you learn a lot!!
