How do I go about being anonymous/private on social medias like youtube, twitter, instagram? (lemmy.ml)

I don't really use them, lately I thought if I want my voice/influence to be heard on a wider audience, I need to join the corporate social media platforms first.

my strategy is to slowly convert my followers to follow me on pleroma/mastodon by telling them if they want to see more/relevant posts, go to my fediverse account.

Instagram isn't necessary but twitter and youtube is. I haven't found a way to make an account privately. does anyone have any ideas? it would be really helpful

so the things I need

a vpn for twitter since it doesn't work on tor
a phone number

edit; I tried 1984 and it asked for personal info for the domain. use njal.la instead.

Again I should note not my service, I just have paid coins to them and it all works.
