Penny 22” for Commuting?

For context, I’ve never skated before but I’ve been thinking of getting a board for a while to help w/ my commute, and I settled on getting a penny board. Longboards or cruisers seemed nice, but I needed something really portable and easy to carry everywhere, so I heard about penny boards and how lightweight they are and decided to grab a cheap one off marketplace to try out. I’ve heard that it might be hard to first learn coz of its size, but I’m willing to sacrifice and practice extra in return for portability. Figured I’d spend $5 to try it out and learn how to ride it. Worst case I wouldn’t like it and switch to something bigger/stop skating completely and best case I do end up liking it and use it for a while . Was just wondering if theres anything I might’ve missed when researching about commute boards, and if you think the penny board might suck for me.

(The board I’m getting is a fish penny board mini cruiser off marketplace for $5)
