I'm very much the same. When I was young my devices were filled with every program and extension I could find and my devices were slow, full of ads and likely sucking up all my personal info. These days I have everything trimmed down to the bare minimum open source programs only. My "old" phone runs faster than everyones current year phone and I have no adverts on anything. I use next to no social media and I feel I live a better life and get better experiences with tech than the general public. Most modern tech is actively hostile to the user and having some restraint and avoiding the crap will reward you well.
