Don't have the time to get into a grammar debate. Just letting you know why you're being downvoted since no one else told you why your statement is incorrect

'All precautions' is plural, so you have to use 'are'. Using 'is' is in no way correct there; the 'deterrents' bit has nothing to do with it

Ah, I didn't realize. That does make the situation a bit stickier, then

I'm not familiar with soundcloud's TOS, which is why I noted that it's my opinion. When did people decide it's alright for multi-billion dollar corporations to dictate what people create for fun?

Mods are free and community-driven. This situation is closer to someone using the chorus to a song in their own soundcloud track, which in my opinion should be completely fine

No one is saying simply "don't stress". Recognizing when stress is centered around something outside your influence can be a step toward dealing with it. That may not work for some, but it does for others - as I said, different strokes. Making a broad generalization about what is and isn't good advice is reductive and only shuts down advice that may help OP

hey, one of the greatest shows ever made

Dismissing advice that doesn't work for you personally isn't helpful - different strokes and all. I've dealt with anxiety and have found that rationalizing emotional responses to events outside my control normally works well for me. Ultimately, there's no one-size solution, so people need to try different approaches to find what works for them. A variety of perspectives is always best

Ironically, these are the sorts of questions you should be asking a therapist. More general advice is to only allow yourself to stress about things in your control. There's a lot of shittiness in the world, and stressing over it is poison to your mental well-being. Focus on what you can change and let go of anything beyond that. It helps me to try giving people the benefit of the doubt, e.g. imagine a scenario where your therapist ghosting you is justifiable - maybe a close family member of theirs was in an accident - and choose to believe that. While it may not always be correct, this is a much better way to live for your part.

I recently switched from Joplin to Obsidian for different reasons. I'd prefer something FOSS, but so far I've been happy with the transition. Since it works with plain markdown files, it would fit your use case

Running fewer commands as root is more significant risk reduction than having an extra user. I won't be replying further since I'm simply repeating what others have already said. If you sincerely don't understand, I suggest doing additional research on your own.

You seem to be looking at the issue in black and white. Any reduction in root access is beneficial. Using sudo with password cache lasting an hour is still preferable to signing in as root. As many people have said, it's about minimizing attack surface
