I get this to some extent... On the other hand, none of that matters.

What instance to choose? Doesn't really matter.
What community to subscribe to? Both! If later you figure out you don't like one of them, just unsub...

But yeah, I know normies seem unable to just jump in and see how it works. They just read "fediverse" and don't know what it is so just reject everything that it's related to because "it's too complicated".

For me personally it's the FOMO, what if the technology board on that instance is that much better than the one. Do I have to sub to 20 of the same boards? Kinda annoying tbh
