Create many accounts similar to your current ones or buy existing accounts with activity and change their information to be similar to yours. Muddy the water enough that anyone googling your real name can never guess you and misdirect people into clicking unsafe content.
You will leave traces of information no matter how hard you try if you spend enough time on any site.
Btw, did you know that even if you ask dang to rename your account - people can easily find you by searching on hn.algolia.com because they don't auto update indexes on renames?
Same for many other sites. There are many indexes and archives that never update old data and won't care about GDPR requests.
