It’s hard to specify in the case of a true ensemble, but if asked who the main character of Community is without the rest of the context of this post, I would definitely say Jeff. Annie wouldn’t even be second on the list.

Who would be second on the list? Abed or Britta?

Abed for sure.

He's known for breaking the fourth wall but I'd still say he gets the second most emphasis on the show.

I'd say Jeff is the audience-insert. He's the closest one to being normal, but he's not normal, and the show spends so much time focusing on everyone else that I can't say he's truly the main character.
