I was looking into visiting Cuba in 2024 but there seems to be a lot of conflicting information. Does anybody have good resources on how best to visit without being put onto a watch list or whatever?

I am not an authority on US customs and travel regulations, don't take my word as guaranteed to keep you out of trouble.
That said, everything I see has told me that you can check a box saying you are going for "Support for the Cuban People", and that and a visa (which Cuba is willing to do their part for) will get you in. You are not supposed to spend money at certain state owned enterprises and you are supposed to document what you do so that it is in-line with your reason for going, but it's not like anyone actually checks that shit anyways, so realistically you are probably not going to get called out if you "support the Cuban people" with tourism money. It seems that the people who actually get fined for doing this are people making documentaries and shit, so you're probably safe as long as you contain any latent instagram influencer urges. Tens of thousands of Americans visit every year and it seems only a couple dozen at most might get caught.
