From a skim of the transcript, it seems like the advice here is mostly to play a character who will take the whole end of the multiverse scenario seriously; if you usually prefer to play goofy comic relief characters, give them a point when they realize it’s time to get serious.
There was also mention that PCs could come from different worlds (e.g. one from Krynn, one from Eberron, one from Oerth, one from Toril, etc.) and that wanting to protect your character’s world specifically could be a good motivation. Also, the book apparently has DM advice on how to get a group of PCs from different worlds to work together cohesively.

Well, the thing is this campaign doesn't seem like too much of a tailroad, but rather 7 contained modules that lino through the MacHuffims and point to a final boss. From the descriptions given, it seems easy to disentangle one of the scenarios, or run them in various orders.
That's pretty much every AP
It's only a railroad if it is boring (even if the scenery is nice). If it's fun, it is s rollercoaster.

it has a similar theme (location hopping), and you can probably just skip one adventure or so to move over to Vecna at the right level, but I would not expect any coordination beyond that
