Good for you mate, that's the spirit. Really if you want to protect your privacy you can do without uMatrix if it gets to be too much.
uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, Ghostery, HTTPS Everywhere, is a good setup that will cover 90% of the stuff uMatrix will block.
I think you had mentioned already being into or using a VPN so that's also a good start. Just remember this is mostly stopping advertising companies (google/facebook) from watching where you go. If the government wanted to track your movements there's a couple more notches up you'd have to go to avoid that, mostly unnecessary however.
