Many worlds is "more true" than Copenhagen, but I think the description given by "many minds" is closer to the truth of things. According to the description given by many minds, there is a pre-existing Infinity of universes, histories, and minds. When any mind receives information which it didn't have before, (i.e. when it makes a measurement) it doesn't split or create anything new. Rather, the mind simply differentiates, and the set of universes/histories compatible with it and this new information it has learned, changes.

Schroedinger had his own version of many worlds / many minds interpretation.

“The idea that they [measurement outcomes] be not alternatives but *all* really happen simultaneously seems lunatic to him [the quantum theorist], just *impossible*. He thinks that if the laws of nature took *this* form for, let me say, a quarter of an hour, we should find our surroundings rapidly turning into a quagmire, or sort of a featureless jelly or plasma, all contours becoming blurred, we ourselves probably becoming jelly fish. It is strange that he should believe this. For I understand he grants that unobserved nature does behave this way – namely according to the wave equation. The aforesaid *alternatives* come into play only when we make an observation - which need, of course, not be a scientific observation. Still it would seem that, according to the quantum theorist, nature is prevented from rapid jellification only by our perceiving or observing it. [........] The compulsion to replace the "simultaneous* happenings, as indicated directly by the theory, by *alternatives*, of which the theory is supposed to indicate the respective *probabilities*, arises from the conviction that what we really observe are particles - that actual events always concern particles, not waves."
