    You can start by looking up your name on major search engines and delete social accounts that are yours, and for the people search websites some of them have opt outs but most are really annoying and don’t comply (in my experience)

    Consider using a privacy respecting browser like Firefox with the extension uBlock origin. Keep it to a max of two other extensions because it makes your browser more identifiable.

    Consider using open source software over closed source software (just because it’s open source doesn’t mean it’s always safe)

    For email I use proton mail and I’ve been very happy with it along with there other stuff.

    As some other people have mentioned, self hosting is a good option if you have the time for it, and a spare computer laying around.
