> So which one do I choose? I cannot even explore a server’s users and posts from the community list.
You can, right from the homepage of any instance.
You have "discover users" button, which will show you any local user that wants to be there (by default you're not visible here, you need to opt-in in the settings).
You also have "see what's happening", which will show you latest public posts from an instance.
Using Fosstodon purely as an example: https://fosstodon.org/explore https://fosstodon.org/explore and https://fosstodon.org/public https://fosstodon.org/public .
> And then I created an account in the wrong server, and then what? Can I migrate my account to another server?
...kinda. You can "archive" your account and redirect your visitors to the new one. You can't migrate who's following you and who you're following.
Also there's nothing stopping you from having an account on multiple instances, but that's mostly unnecessary since you can follow people regardless of what server they happen to be using.

Your toots will not be moved, due to technical limitations.
