MIne was from 2007. So not as old as yours. Yes, there are many things connected to it, but you can’t imagine what a feeling of relief that is.

I’m in a very similar situation like you are. I too have started to be annoyed with the Big Tech products and the Internet in general.
I have switched to Lemmy, shut down my gmail account and opened a Proton Mail, and switched from using Google search engine to Qwant.
I too have switched to Linux Mint, and I’m loving it. TBH my IT colleauges talked me into buying refurbished Thinkpad laptop and told me to install Linux Mint. Boy am I glad I did that.
The next step for me is switching to Fairphone :D
Oh there are a lot of small things I had to give up because of rising costs of living. TBHany have been a positive change.
The whole situation has made me more intentional with my money, and I like that.
