Poor lizard, not only he's stinky and ugly, he is already having problems with eye sights. Old age?

Yeah, I would agree that people who don't fact-check what they see on the media, especially social media, are more susceptible to misinformation and manipulation. Unfortunately, I think the number of people that don't have the skills, or the inclination, is vast given Mobile reachability.
From the native web interface, currently no to all your questions.
This tendency seems to be commonplace in humans. Big sisters/brothers like to tell their younger siblings what to do. You give people any power, there would be some who are bound to abuse it. That's why there is philosophy about anarchism.
This is so shit it's funny.
Search: bigger instances. Speed: something close to you. Bigger: juicier targets for DDOS, hacks. Smaller: likelier to disappear.

Not saying that it shouldn't be shut down, but it sounds suspiciously convenient. No backups?

That's a bird of prey, all right.
Thanks for the work. You are a life saver. I coincidentally ended up in the scenario you described: using an account (big instance) to subscribe to everything. Syncing unsubscription from a main account would work well for me.
With the other arm still up, I wouldn't want to be Jesus.
Hey, dude, I feel I somewhat understand you, because I was the same, and am the same. But here's something I learned a while ago that helped (obviously didn't kill it). It's by now a cliche and is totally commercialized, but hey, if it works.
Habit 1: Be Proactive: Focus and act on what you can control and influence instead of what you can’t.
There are a lot of things you can't control/have causal effects in life. You will kill yourself worrying about them. Drop the bad news you can't change. If you already know who you are going to vote for, just don't read the political news. Do you parts for the climate change and forget the rest. etc.
Live long and prosper.
