Morphology
The comparative 'easier' together with 'sight' meaning 'a large amount' and 'fuck' used as a vulgar intensifier yields a compositional meaning of 'much/a lot easier.' However, the phrase is slangy, dialectal and uses nonstandard ordering and intensifier usage, so a B1 learner — even if they know each word's literal senses — may not reliably recognize the idiomatic, emphatic function without exposure.
Etymology
Fuck sight easier comes from an older phrase 'a sight easier', where sight meant 'much' and easier meant 'less hard'. People added the strong word fuck as extra emphasis, so the phrase now means 'much easier than expected'.
