This is the main takeaway that people seem to be missing: follow good computer hygiene, and you'll be fine.

Keep your shit updated, and don't download/run things you don't trust. Keep an unintrusive anti-virus running in the background as a backup just in case there's a supply chain attack, but don't rely on it to make your decisions on whether to open a file or not.
