One thing to think about is that all these apps that are privacy oriented are good because they collect less data *in the app,* but not in any general sense. Brave browser may not collect data about you, and may stop a few cookies and trackers, but it doesn't protect someone monitoring traffic from seeing where you go. Tor is much better (but slower), but does not protect against fingerprinting.
It's important to be careful in apps, but if someone is truly concerned about privacy, he or she should look at a privacy-oriented operating system, e.g. Whonix or Qubes. Fundamentally, it almost doesn't matter what browser you use if you are using Windows or MacOS or (especially iOS or Android).
Each step you take is a useful incremental step. It's also important to think of privacy in a vertical manner. It's great to use proton mail. But... Did you pay for that proton account with a credit card in your own name? If so, then you can be associated with that account even if you don't use your name. Do you sign your emails with that account using your own name or handle? Do you pay for things using a credit card using that "safe" app? The same thing is true with cryptocurrency. Do you use a software wallet? Then they are reporting every transaction to the IRS (if you are in the US). At the end of the year, my wallet provider sends me an IRS form with every transaction I've made using that wallet.
Remember that the Feds caught the "Dread Pirate Roberts" (Ross Ulbricht_ not by technically "breaking" Tor (though they did interesting technical stuff, like finding and seizing a server), but mostly by noting he used the same handle in dark web and clear web conversations.
