Half those make my anxiety worse. Promoting these (literally) as coping mechanisms presents them as things which can work in general rather than things which can help some people and not others. Ultimately, coping mechanisms are always personal, so any list like this will be bad.
The fact that dealing with anxiety and finding strategies to overcome it are being more openly discussed and promoted is a really good thing.

That's not what the post was. It was prescribing a set of coping strategies onto complete strangers without consideration of their situation. It wasn't saying, "Hey, you should consider your situation and figure out a coping strategy that works for you". It was saying, "Do this".

That wasn't information on healthy coping mechanisms b/c actual information on healthy coping mechanisms would emphasize that a healthy coping mechanism isn't something which can be universalized but something that has to be tailored to you and give you ways to figure them out.

Yes. It's a bad tweet. It's not that deep, but it is still bad.
