Honestly, for me it's a hobby to see how far I can take it while also having all the ease of modern life, and my partner supports that but doesn't follow it all himself. It takes some time researching and setting stuff up, but after that you cán have most modern ease and fancy things. As it's a hobby for me, I never felt burned out by it.
That being said, if it's not your hobby I can totally understand it feels like a rabbithole and becomes a bit much. Just remember that everything you do is better than nothing. If it's getting too much, take a halt, and take satisfaction in what you did already do instead of worrying about all that you didn't. Every step taken is one, they all count.
There is always more you cán do. Everything is hackable, if not technically then by social hacking. Nothing is 100% safe. In the end, there is always a risk somewhere. If that risk is likely, is a different question. So just look at what is worth it for you, how far yóu want to take it. Understand that understanding the risks doesn't mean you have to block it. It just means you can do a proper assessment about if something needs to be done about it or not. Sometimes, it's ok to say the risk is acceptable. It depends on your situation really.
