New to tanking and FFXIV, what constitutes as a big pulls vs little pulls?

Hello there everyone! As the title suggests, I'm a new player to FFXIV, tanking, and even MMO's in general (closest being Destiny 2). I've already learned a little bit of lingo, watched a few YouTube videos, and have done some of the tank tutorials. However, I'm still confused on how I should most effectively pull mobs for my party? I usually try to pull as many as I can for my team to not waste their time, but I don't believe I'm pulling enough at times. I'll have enemies swarming me, but my team will continue to move on and tell me to come with them to keep pulling when I thought I was at a pretty comfortable point.

My question is: how do I gauge my limit on what I can tank without dying and being a detriment to my team? I know the question isn't as simple as asking how many rooms I should pull, but I'm just not quite sure on how I can tell; what I can realistically tank, what will save the most time for my party, and what my support is most comfortable with me pulling too. I know this is probably a very silly question to post and I'll probably learn a lot of what I'm wondering as I go, but I just want to be the most helpful I can for my party. Thanks for taking the time to read!
