Both login.gov and id.me are quick to use once they are set up. I believe the OP was having difficulty setting up id.me in the first place.

From reading pages comparing the two, it appears that login.gov is easier to set up initially. ID.me requires a picture of an ID to verify identity while the pages say login.gov uses some other technique.

The OP should try creating a login.gov account to see if that is easier for him.
