So this is a bit of a debugging question, but I do not have any idea what else to try.
I am new to Magento and I wanted to set up a local instance of it to fiddle around.
I followed effectively this tutorial. After everything is done, trying to open the Magento site on browser merely shows the index of the directory Magento is installed on, as shown below:
On the same machine, another test pure php page works fine.
I will post the Apache configuration of the site and the configuration of Magento as shown by the magento config:show command. Feel free to ask whatever other configuration or log is needed to find out what is happening.
Site Apache configuration:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/magento2.4/pub
<Directory /var/www/html/magento2.4/pub>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
# Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Magento config output:
$ sudo -u www-data /var/www/magento2.4/bin/magento config:show

Apache error log has nothing generated whenever I access the site.
Below are the contents added to the Apache access logs when I access the site:

I made sure multiple times to convert the permissions of all the files in the directory to www-data user, recursively.
Any help appreciated.
EDIT: So I changed my DocumentRoot to /var/www/magento2.4/pub. Now I get a page with no css apparently:
And every link I try is a 404:
The rest of the configuration is the same. pub folder has its own default .htaccess file.
DocumentRoot /var/www/magento2.4/pubbut for the rules I have<Directory /var/www/html/magento2.4/pub>, a wholehtmloff. The joys of copy pasting code and only changing half of it.
