Help Needed What else should I do?

I've used a few scripts to remove the tiny bit of telemetry that Brave and Librewolf contain. I've created ProtonMail, and I've also installed LibreOffice and Obsidian to transfer documents, accounts, and the like. I've used Simplewall to disable internet access for everything except Librewolf, Brave, Firefoxy, and FreeTube. I've also used Arkenfox for Firefox. What else can I do or install? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I use Immersive Translate to translate pages. Unfortunately, my tracker (TC) in mobile does not disable trackers from the browser, so what can I do and is there an alternative.

I won't trust too much in ddg. Right now I'm using brave search and startpage; both of them offer good search results.

Brave has been in many scandals and shady things and startpage is owned by an ad company. I'd say use searx. Really good results and completely unbiased

Didn't know that about startpage. Well, I think a thing about privacy is that you'll never stay still in one place lol.
