Yes but the problem is the centralization and they may want an instance with their own language and culture. I think LW is too big and should be redistributed to other instance. But it is also a good starting pack. :)

Piefed support Peertube. Some time video are missing but for most part it works well.
For now, you can only comment on peertube's channel if there are some comment. I opened an issue about it. You can comment on PieFed community.
Here is an example : https://piefed.social/post/695735
I create list/collumns and put users by their main topic as i would do in commumities. I also use hashtags to dicovers news content related to it but they often forgot to put it. 😅
So i follow around 500 peoples. Maybe more.
You are right we shouldn't explain federation. But tell them for example with PieFed, they can watch peertube video, comment to mastodon group...but not federation. For me, it is the strongest point of the fediverse.
As for the instance, it would be great if they have an instance picker : what are your language ? Favorite topic ? Then give them several instance.
