I’ve read the online definitions but it doesn’t make sense with the way people use it. What do people mean when they talk about nuance?

Nuanced means its not as straightforward as you might think at a glance.
Think of a basic story line in a kids book where the good guy is clearly 100% good, and the bad guy is 100% bad and it is clear and predictable. No nuance at all.
In a more adult book following the same characters and the same overall plot, you might find the “bad guy” is just lashing out due to trama they experienced and “good guy” has his own demons.
With a few layers added and a bit of back story, you can make it much harder to determine the good guy vs bad guy. Or perhaps the “good guy” is actually a bully and the “bad guy” is just misunderstood.
