The good news is that there are enough people feeling this that refuges from the enshittification are growing. We're in one right now.
Also, while online personal computing has definitely been getting worse, offline personal computing is better than it's ever been. Growing that is sort of like making your own walled garden.
That all said, only keep to technology as much as it improves your life. The other people saying to go into nature more have it right.
