Security starts first with you. Most of the attacks are done though social engineering. Email phishing, dodgy webpage logins.
Normal password security behaviour should fine for you to use the pc.
More importantly, what is the distro you're using?
Maybe consider using Flatpaks for the apps, they tend to offer more restrictions on access to the system. (Installing the torrent app as a Flatpak and only give it permissions to a specific folder)
One of things I tend to do is install chromium just to login on my Google apps, Gmail, YT. But I'm more of a non data sharing freak.
