The answer you referenced will still work. The caveats are that moving and resizing partitions is not a very fast operation, and you should be prepared for it to take some time. Additionally, I would encourage you to backup the data in your home partition.

Yes! It will work. However, people can make mistakes and accidents happen. For this reason you should backup your files, before you start. If things don't go as planned, you should be prepared for a fresh install that will remove/dev/sda8,/dev/sda9, and/dev/sda10and start from scratch. After the new install you will need to restore your files from the backup.

Gparted is the right tool, no need to reinstall. You need live ubuntu usb, boot from it, choose try without installing and run gparted from there.
- Resize your sda10 partition, move to right
- Move sda9 partition to the right
- Then you'll be able to resize root partition using unallocated space
in the right of it
