Tracking? I think that the Fediverse isn't Facebook, no tracking conecting or linking from one to another, tracking from the Onion, but not from Mastodon. Look for yourself who is tracking you https://themarkup.org/blacklight (nice in your Bookmarks)

If nothing else, your ISP is also tracking.

That isn't avoidable if you don't use an VPN. ProtonVPN (OpenSource) is fine, even the free one (no logs, encrypted military level, no data limits in the free version, made by cientifics of the CERN)
