Apparently anything beyond filling out a registration form is too complicated for a lot of people. Heck, even that seems to be too much for some people, hence the popularity of login with Facebook or Google features. Personally I'm happy to be away from people who can't figure out simple concepts. But, I'm the exact person you described in your post, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'd say it's not picking a server which is complicated. I think people don't really get the concept of federalized social networks. Honestly, I myself had some minor issues understanding how this works and I was studying software engineering in university. Hopefully this concept lifts off hard in the following years, because I think it's a future of the internet.
