As MajorHavoc said, there are ways. I do in fact use GrapheneOS, have access to a reasonably secure VPN, I use Firefox as well as Vanadium, within Firefox I use Ublock Origin and a few other tools. Some argue that having as many layers of "protection" is counterintuitive because it makes your fingerprint on the web more unique.
That's a great point.
I'm comforted that you listed largely the same controls as I use, so it seems like at least there's a little cloud of us 'deGoogle' users out there providing eachother some anti-fingerprinting.
As someone wise once said to me, consider your threat model.
