Honestly, the risks are overhyped.
What can people do with your ip address? Track your *general* area, sure. But exact address? Nah.
DDoS is annoying but temporary. And hacking? Unless you’re running a server, it’s unlikely.
Still, a VPN doesn’t hurt. I like Windscribe ‘cause it’s cheap. Also, use a password manager so even if someone *does* get in, they can’t do much.
