    Depending on the song I’m playing, I use a modified mini F. Index finger on the first fret of the B string, middle finger on the second fret of the G string, ring finger on the third fret of the A string, and the pinky on the third fret of the D string. I kind of use the fleshy part of my palm to mute the high E string. And, if you can, you can use your thumb to fret the first fret of the low E string. You don’t need to use your thumb though to get the similar sound as the mini F. This way you don’t need to barre the B and E strings with your index finger. I use both depending on what song I’m playing. You may want to try it, it may be easier for you, and it sounds pretty much the same.
