I prefer to hide in the plain sight. I use Google, MSA, Bing, Edge, Onedrive, Outlook.
Trying to hide too much is like using DoNoTrack, it only draws the needless attention.
I use Outlook for official business, gmail for eshops, they know my real name and location.
But I separate browsers, Edge for casual, Brave for Google/YouTube, LibreWolf for FB, TOR for other.
I use NextDNS blocking GAFAM, I avoid browser extensions (easily identified). Firewall blocks ports 53/80.
