Are VPN good for privacy today, should we used them to protect our privacy?

Not free, none have all advantages and wouldn’t let my ISP only know my traffic so these times I’m really overwhelmed by all of this

Used Tor for a bit but it’s not practically useful, slow (okay but not the main problem) and blocked by a lot of websites…

Maybe a chain of VPN could be good? I really don’t know, can you help me?

Basically I don’t want to have no protection but don’t think VPNs are really the solution…

PS: maybe a rented machine with self hosted like VPN could be good?

    What does VPN hide that HTTPS can’t hide for media server?

    HTTPS Doesn’t hide where the traffic is going, so your ISP will track you going to piracy sites. It also doesn’t protect you against identification when torrenting.
