I'm not averse to card games, but I'm also not the biggest fan of them. I've seen Rumble Tumble Games play Balatro and I thought that it looked pretty fun. Should I get it?

I enjoy it a lot. It does use poker hands to score, but there are so many layers on top of that. From which of the decks you start with (i like the deck that only has 2 suits, makes making flushes real easy), to swaping/adding/removing cards that don't fit what jokers you have, to manipulating how many of certain cards you have (I've had decks with 10+ 2's before).

The only information you really need is knowledge of how to make poker hands and some basic math skills. Great for low stress gaming imo.
