Not sure if it is like that because I'm in Korea, but on my Samsung S9 Samsung is injecting ads for their new S24 in my notifications. I've had the phone for 5 years and this is the first time I see ads in my phone notifications, unbelievable.

Same conclusion, perhaps look into putting lineage OS on it

Don't use Lineage. It doesn't even have secure boot. DivestOS would be a better option but keep in mind, there's no making an end of life phone secure. All you can do is mitigate, like putting a bandaid on a bullet wound.

Tldr save up for a new phone and use DivestOS in the meantime for harm reduction only.

That's not a real solution since you'll still miss out on driver and firmware updates. Worst of all, installing Lineage gets rid of secure boot. Which needless to say, isn't secure.

In the case of LineageOS which doesn't even support secure boot, I'd argue no. You may have a look at DivestOS though. Keep in mind no matter what you do, there's no making an end of life device secure. You can only do harm reduction. Basically putting a bandaid on a bullet wound.
