SimpleLogin allows you to create private email aliases, all emails sent to an alias will be forwarded to your real email address. I’ve been using this for over a year and it’s been great. If you pay for Proton Mail, you also get SimpleLogin Premium for free.
The ProtonVPN free plan is good though. There’s no reason not to trust them, Proton is a privacy company and their business model is very clear. Also, their apps are completely free and open source. Windscribe might also be an option, but they have bandwidth limits. Proton doesn’t limit bandwidth, instead they only allow you to connect to a small amount servers in only 3 countries. They also block P2P on the free plan, but it’s fine if you just want to get around censorship and browse the web.
I always use a VPN, no matter what network I’m on. I don’t need or want to trust my ISP, I just need to trust my VPN company. And when I don’t trust my VPN anymore, I can easily switch to another one, while I can’t switch ISPs that easily, because they actually own the fiber-optic cable that runs to my house. Censorship is not the only issue with ISPs, privacy is another reason why a trustworthy VPN is mandatory for me. You can’t fix ISPs, they are garbage, and they will always be. But you can use a VPN, so you don’t have to care about your ISP.
Piped is better for privacy because it proxies everything through the Piped server, with Invidious you still leak your IP to Google. I also prefer the UI of the Piped web client.

Recording Spotify to your DAW, can this get your account banned?
Does Spotify have a way to see if your computer is recording with your DAC’s stereo mix? And if so, is there a way around it?
