I switched to Linux full time (I’d gone back and forth for a while) about 10 years ago when my XP laptop died.
I had access to Windows 7 via work, but I didn’t like how much telemetry was being sent back to MS…

For Enterprise/Education you can disable the ‘recommended’ section entirely via group policy. Doesn’t work for Pro/Home versions though, from what I remember.
It only works on desktop, but I use Syncthing to sync the whole profile (with the cache etc folders excluded).
You do need to make sure the profile path is identical on both machines as it’s hardcoded in the extensions json file, and otherwise your extensions won’t work properly.
So long as you close the browser on one machine before opening it on the other, it will sync your open tabs as well.
Yeah, I’m running LineageOS with MicroG, so I tried disabling Android System Webview as a test. ReVanced seems perfectly happy to browse/play videos (though I didn’t try logging out). The only apps I have that fall over without webview seem to be eBay and Amazon, so no great loss there.
I mean, I’m not saying I like it, but it probably looks much less garish IRL.
The estate agents have clearly taken the photos on an overcast day, then (with their usual cack-handed approach to photography) fucked with the sliders in Photoshop until the pictures look less dingy.
