Default question about wire antenna and tuner

Hi, I am learning about antennas, and and wondering about how antenna
tuners work. I've read you can use anything as an antenna as long as you
have a tuner. Well, If I put up a wire dipole, and then use a tuner,
what is the best length of wire to use? If I use an 80 meter dipole with
a tuner, is that better than using a 10 meter dipole with a tuner?
