Is it easier to play piano with big hands?

The piano is absolutely easier to play with large hands (if your fingers aren't too broad) depending on how complex the piece is. Some pieces may be impossible to play without other tools if your hands are not large enough (notably Rachmaninoff).

I don't really know anything about pianos, but since I just got a digital one I guess I should give it a go. The first thing I noticed is that it is difficult for me to press multiple keys that are a bit separated from each other with one hand. Not gonna lie: my hands are kinda small (I think).

I guess that it is still possible to play it well anyway and I just need practice. However, given that my hands are small, will my learning curve be significantly more challenging, or is this kind of problem very common and happens to most people?

They're not miniature though :(
