If you're savy then install open wrt on it. If you want expert mode, then install pfsense on an old PC/laptop. If you want pucker factor, then install pfsense in a VM where the host machine gets it's ip from the VM.
Why are you like this, and who hurt you??
Yeah, that's reasonable
This not so much
Lol, I get blamed enough for DNS, I don't need routing too
What's a good router one can use for openWRT? I just so happen to need a new one. No expert mode for me.
I would just look at routers with the features you want and check to see if it's compatible.

Thanks! Just to be sure, the router company becomes inconsequential when I install openwrt, or am I mistaken?
As in say I buy a linksys router and install openwrt, linksys can no longer spy on my traffic, so I shouldn't worry about that, right?
Ok cool thanks, I'll probably go with something on this list then. My other things I was looking at were the Turris Omnia and the Peplink B-one, but tbh a lynksys with openwrt will likely serve me fine.
