It all depends if you trust the ISP less than a random VPN provider. With DNS over HTTPS and mostly encrypted traffic these days, the ISPs don't get to see more than IPs. But IPs are sometimes all they need to figure out what your browsing, especially in some countries where they can throttle your traffic depending on what you're doing. Luckily, in the EU that is illegal, so all you'd need a VPN at home for is bypassing geo-restriction and maybe hiding your Linux seeds
