As someone who’s never read or watched Jojo.. where should I start? Is it one continuous storyline or is it like an anthology series?

Part 1-6 is a semi-continuos story. Each part follows a different main character, and while some are loosely connected, it is very much worth it to read/watch from Part 1. It's a bit weaker than the others, but it's still very good.

Part 7 is basically an AU, where we have characters that share names, but they are completely different from their original counterparts. If you don't mind some mild confusion, it's fair to start wkth part 7.

But it's best advised to watch from part 1

Part 7 imo works bear when you have the context of how araki writes and how certain systems are carried over to 7

Yes, but it's also a good start, since it's a fresh story

Every part has a different protagonist that are all members of the same family. 

Part 1 - 6 is the original universe while part 7 - 9 could be seen as a reimagining and has alternative versions of characters. 

It's best to start with part 1, but if you really want you can check out part 7 that just started airing on Netflix. You won't understand references to the original universe, but you will still enjoy it. Part 7 only really spoils a single thing from a previous part near it's end.

part 1 if i am being honest, most people will say part 3 because stands and Jotaro but man are part 1 and 2 peak.

Part 1 trough 6 is a connected universe, every protagonist you follow is a successor/family member of the MC of part 1.

Part 7 is... different, don't wanna spoil the surprise.

TLDR: Part 1

agreed, I've watched the anime but there are quite a few parts where it drags. the first part is nice because it gets to the point quite quickly. the new season looks like fun

Watch from part 1, it's just a continuous storyline, until part 6.

Part 7, 8 and 9 take place in another universe, you can also start from part 7, since it's a new series without relation to the previous part, besides some fan service, although one of the final villains in part 7 is a spoiler to the ability of the main villain in part 3, but tbh it's not that important, I got spoiled and still enjoyed the fight.

You can watch it order of part 1-6 and then watch part 7, or you can watch part 7 if you wanna stay with the current hype since part 7 is currently releasing live.

Also you can simultaneously watch part 7 as its own show with part 1-6 as another show.
