Well you are on Lemmy rather than Reddit, you appear to be wanting to be surveilled less. May I suggest you get into home labbing, it is a hobby that will give you a little more privacy (or a lot more depending on how far you go). I started years ago with one simple raspberry pi and pihole, time would go by when I would just get board of it and stop using it but that quickly got me back into using it. I would upgrade the system several times in different ways over the years to what I have now; I have 2 pi 5’s (a third which I plan on using as off site backup sooner or later). On top of my two pihole setups (they both do more than just pihole), I have 2 static ip’s so my ISP does less snooping on me as they understand that I have my own firewall they cannot see past, which yes I have a firewall with a customized and hardened vanilla install of openwrt. My plan was to self host my own email, when I discovered it would be a lot harder than a weekend project I got the email package provided by easyDNS, who now hosts my domain name, I have a different email address for everything (service name)_(Saskatchewan specific word)(three random numbers)@reannlegge.ca. EasyDNS’s easymail I would recommend over my old hosting service (Hosthero) any day of the week I can make random emails just on the fly, and if there are not rules for that email address it just goes to the junk.
Find a new hobby that helps seperate you from being tracked, let it be pihole like I did or something else simpler and start using searxng instead of a commercial search engine.
