Nothing about other people expectations, but not having to worry about where you're going next, or how to get mail or do things that take longer than a couple of days, etc

Yes. The point is that you worry and that you perceive that as a burden. Heck, a lot of people may see it as a burden. But there are people that find that liberating.
Being a digital nomad probably isn’t for you then. I have been doing it for 6 years as a normal W2 software engineer and I love it. I stay in a place for 3-6 months and go on adventures every weekend. Everything I own fits in 2 bags and I get my mail through a remailer but honestly it is truly rare that I need the physical mail.

It works for me but there is no “one true way” to live a life. You do you and find your happiness.
