Everyone is going to recommend the specific interface that they've got, because it works for them. Actually, pretty much all of them are going to work fine, provided that it's not some ancient interface that's being sold at a bargaintastic price on eBay!
Rather than the specific brand, consider also how many inputs you're going to want to use simultaneously.
To begin with, you might just want to record a single electric guitar. Single input interface = job done. But if you might want to start recording multiple tracks, then it can be easier to have each guitar plugged into a separate input into its own track on the DAW (saves changing input levels). Or, you might want to add a mic. Or, if using an acoustic, you might want a couple of acoustic mics recording the guitar simultaneously. Those mean multiple inputs.
Different interfaces often comes with trial or free versions of a DAW. Again, they're much of a muchness, but once you've invested time and effort into learning the interface of one, will you want to swap to another? So, consider the upgrade path from the free version into a more functional paid version, and the level of support/forum/YTvids that are available for each DAW.
Garageband is great, as a freebie, but it's also limited. The "obvious" upgrade path if/when you hit those limits is into Logic, but that comes with some downsides too.
Using USB3, you should have no problems with latency etc, and it's just plug & play. It's how my set-up is connected, and I've never had any issues.
(2-input Presonus USB 96 with -free- Studio One Prime was my entry point. When I decided that worked for me, I upgraded the free version to the -paidfor- Artist version, and that has way more functionality than I'll ever need, plus an incredible amount of free YT resources to learn it all. You can buy that for £80-odd).
