If your goal is to interoperate with Python (esp. when using numpy and friends) then Anaconda is actually a good option... just learn how activate a conda environment before doing anything within that ecosystem and remember that each conda environment you create will be independent of all others. [1] Sadly, it is just a PITA if you are not looking for those interoperability benefits and fail to get on the conda tool bandwagon, so don't take this as advocating for Anaconda in general.
FWIW I run both the standard distribution of R and an Anaconda distribution on the same machine, and only use the Anaconda version when I have to... but I have avoided installing R (or any custom Python libraries) into the default Anaconda environment, which may be a key point that makes this work.
