not op but you should just self host. VPSs are cheap - entry tariffs are like 3-5$/month for most providers, and thats more than enough to set up a Wireguard or anything else, traffic limits are rarely an issue. if your hosting goes to shit, it's easy enough to recreate the config elsewhere
You are again tied up to the VPS provider in the same way you are tied up to you ISP so there's not going to be too much privacy there. A VPN like that is useful for using it for other purposes such as playing LAN games, placing your other hosted services behind it as an additional security measure or getting access to multiple servers that don't have public access (such as your home lab behind a NAT). But it doesn't annonymize you the way VPN providers "claim" they annonymize you.
