The chords are easier; ukuleles are tuned like the 4 high strings of a guitar (yes I know that it’s actually gCEA but it’s functionally the same), and the chords are the same but without the last two strings.
However ukuleles are harder to play for adults because they are way too small. Anything higher than the 8th fret is basically unplayable.
Eh, I played both for a while (never became good, but that’s not the point), and I always found Ukulele chords awkward and confusing even on the lower frets, while Guitar came more natural to me. I wouldn’t be surprised if that was due to the lack of musical education and professional training though. Oh, and my Ukulele was tuned ADF#H…

Found the German, lol.
ADF#B is a full tone higher but it doesn’t change chord shapes.
I find the chords simple to grasp, but awkward to execute due to how small the neck is.
Dammit, I tried so hard to hide it. :D
