As per title, how do y'all protect your privacy? ... do not disclose your personal data tho haha

For example: besides a VPN i started using Matrix for messaging and Keybase for encrypted storage instead of telegram and google drive, and I self host most of the hosting I need including my own mail server and nextcloud appliance.

I am curious, show me how you hide!

linux on my pc, /e/OS(degoogled privacy focused lineage OS fork) on my phone, phone has the Mull browser which is basically arkenfox mobile. On pc hardened firefox with custom DNS and ublock origin set to block thirdparty scripts also noscript with default set to be same as untrusted. Keepasa XC on pc and keepass dx on mobile. Also I am spoofing my location and blocking trackers systemwide on my phone. Libredirect on firefox also so that I don't have to go to the tracker filled social media sites at all, oh also the skip redirect extension and url shortener list for ublock. And most things I use are FOSS. oh I also use the startpage as my search engine on all my devices. Also protonmail.

How do you achieve the location spoofing?
