That's nice that you enjoy a much less expansive library of entertainment and practically no social interaction. Most people think that's too large of a tradeoff in a world where corpos have all the information about you from birth.

Hope you trust your VPN provider, that's the most common single point of failure given your ISP is collecting and selling all of your data.

I've been satisfied with IRC, that was social enough for me as an autistic kid yes. I've not had the luxury of developing a high standard of social interaction for my daily life.

I understand normal people are not willing to give up those unnecessary things like centralized and profiteered software. I think it's hilarious and laugh at them:) I enjoy the 3 or so friends I text regularly and the people I meet in real life. I understand most people aren't willing to live within those means, but that doesn't make it any less funny.
