If privacy is your goal you'll probably achieve nothing or very little unless you fully delete your entire Facebook account. If you seek to improve your security maybe you should consider accesing Facebook only through a compartmentalized profile on your phone (CalyxOS and GrapheneOS allow for this not sure if regular android does as well). By creating a profile only for the privacy introusive social media you can't avoid you can at least limit the data they can acces from the rest of the things on your phone. And by accesing it only on your phone and not pc you can also limit the number of devices you expose. Better on your phone rather on your pc since pcs don't have good permition management at the OS level typically.
