Third person, First person: what's easier to write?

I am working on both a third person story and a first person story, however, the reason I begun writing the first person story was because I had the idea for a bit, but I had difficulty writing my third person one so I just went for it and put my third person one on pause. And I see many writers doing first person ones all the time, but is it because it's easier? Or is it just a coincidence?
