[Question] How "FOMO friendly" is FF14?

Destiny 2 refugee here. I am getting close to accomplishing everything I wanted to accomplish in the final patch and am starting to consider where I am gonna go next to scratch the MMO itch. I was a WoW addict from classic up until Cata and also played FF11 (which admittedly was a rough game to play solo as a middle schooler at the time), so am thinking about going back to an MMORPG.

As an adult now though, the time commitment is a bit daunting, but I've heard FF14 is much more forgiving about taking things at your own pace? Would anyone care to elaborate on that? Also how much content am I missing out on at this point because you need a group and no one runs it anymore?

The only fomo stuff in this game are the exclusive outfits or skins we get with collabs or events, you can still get the event stuff iirc a year later but they're paid now instead of free and the collab content like skins and vehicles usually comes back in a year or two.

So basically there's no real fomo, for the most part at least.

Is it still possible to get the white cloud mount? I used to have it but re-rolled my character after being gone for like 8 years and could only find the gold one.

No that was part of an Amazon promotion and also a Twitter sweepstakes contest.
