Try out Minetest and download the Mineclone2 Mod through the game. It is quite literally a Minecraft clone that is free and open source, does not require any accounts, has tons of mods, and does not have any tracking or bloatware programmed into it.
I only play offline indie games 99% of the times (using the 🏴☠️ method) which means I dont have to worry about DRM or mandatory login/internet connection
so technically the only thing I had on my steam was my status/scores, which are meaningless since I dont have friends lol

last week i deleted reddit, github, steam, google, discord, facebook and probably more I forgot about
I only keep my Microsoft account cuz I got Minecraft on it, otherwise I use fedi, xmpp, irc and matrix for everything else
I have the exact same problem not being able to delete my Microsoft accounts since they’re linked to paid Minecraft accounts :(

I do play minetst, but I gotta admit Minecraft is 1000% better
I’m sorry but minecraft is way better than that even if closed source, sorry
But steam has all my money and games :(
well if you got important stuff in it then keep it I guess
I only deleted my steam account because I never use it
I was mostly just lamenting that I could never be as hardcore as you. I am too addicted to gaming to give up steam haha
