AIO for wanting to cut off my friend/fellow streamer?

Hey everyone, I need an outside perspective because I'm at my breaking point when it comes to my friend who keeps crossing boundaries. I'd just like to know if I'm overreacting for wanting to cut ties here. Here are a few of the things that just completely threw me off.

I've had issues with an old Discord server so I figured I'd make a complete new server as I had just given my stream an entire overhaul. It took me days to set this server up (I'm not the most tech-savy person) and I invited my friend to help me test out some backend settings. A few hours later she has completely cloned my entire server including the typos I had made. She had never bothered with her discord prior to this.

When we play together on VC she completely dominates the audio (fair). She yaps and yaps so loudly that I sometimes can't even think straight, it also makes it incredibly hard for me to focus on my game and chat. At another stream it became so distracting that I reached out after the stream that it might be for the best if we aren't in call while streaming so we can both focus on our respective chats. She then tried to make up an incredibly controlling rule: "If one of us is live, the other has to stay offline." yeah, no. That same stream I've had some raiders coming in and she demanded that I raid her channel at the end of the night. I told her I wasn't planning to raid her as I already had someone else in mind. I got met with a 'playful' "fuck you bitch".

She also has a habbit of self-promoting her stream AND discord to my viewers. I also have confronted her about this and asked her to stop crossing that boundary. She said she understood but keeps doing it anyway. A few weeks ago I got some new emotes and was excited to share this with my chat, she didn't say a word, just immediately spammed her own emotes in my chat. Which personally felt kind of rude as I was genuinely excited to share the emotes without having my own friend try to overshadow me. She also makes it a habit to tag herself in my stream title constantly, even on days when she isn't streaming.

And what bothered me the most is what happened a few days ago, we were playing some games offline and something had happened ingame. I do record most of my gameplay and she asked if I could show her my POV. I didn't think anything of it and just shared that clip with her. Two hours later she posted it on TikTok without even bothering to ask if I were cool with that.

It just has become incredibly tiring to be her friend this way, she keeps crossing my boundaries even when I confront her about it, am I overreacting? I also apologize for any spelling errors as english isn't my native language.
