Well, why do you want to run a node? Do you want to have lightning? I mean its totally fair to not know. To just wanna try it. Honestly if you don't know just pick one you listed. One with docs that make sense to you. Its not like you can't try multiple ones. Indecision is worse here than picking the "wrong" one.
You also didn't mention what hardware you have. If you have a pi that narrows it. If you have a PC you can leave running that is much better.
