I actually never heard of Lutris before, could you please provide me some links, etc. so I can get into it?

It simple depends on your needs.
I personally use Signal, I donated to Signal, and even if it's not perfect, I think it's a great project.

I think what you really need is threat modeling. It seems like you're currently trying to protect yourself against anything and everything. That's not necessarily wrong, but it stresses you out and overwhelms you. And it's ultimately not really beneficial either. I suggest reading the guide from PrivacyGuides.org and other resources. Ente and Proton also recently wrote a blog post about it.

I write whole essays ;-;
