What type off address should you create to accept payments?

I am looking at this library. https://github.com/bitcoinjs/bitcoinjs-lib

There are numerous type of addresses to choose from:

Generate a random address
Generate an address from a SHA256 hash
Generate a 2-of-3 P2SH multisig address
Generate a SegWit address
Generate a SegWit P2SH address
Generate a SegWit 3-of-4 multisig address
Generate a SegWit 2-of-2 P2SH multisig address

Why are there so many options and is it safe to choose any address type?

I heard coinbase does not implement SegWit yet. Does that mean if I choose SegWit address, I can't get payments from Coinbase users?

If someone sends me to my SegWit address from a non-SegWit address, will it result in bounce back or money being lost?

Solution

It is safe for you to choose any of those addresses however they all work slightly differently.

Bitcoin-core has adopted Segwit and fortunately Segwit is backwards compatible so wallets that are segwit can still transfer funds to wallets that are not segwit enabled.

You will still be able to get coins from non-segwit addresses however there is a chance they may have to pay higher transactional fees to have their purchases included in an earlier block.

Technical justification: Segwit P2SH (Pay to Script Hash), multisig and Segwit must all support the original bitcoin transaction format of Version/txins/txouts/nLockTime allowing wallets on the same Blockchain to interact regardless of being a variation of Segwit or not.
