FOSS Alternative to Privacy? (programming.dev)

Are there any FOSS alternatives to privacy.com? I want to conceal my actual card information when registering with a new account on different platforms so I can create limits, but I can't shake the feeling that privacy.com probably just sells my transaction history. If there's any alternatives to privacy.com that are more transparent, I'd love to know!

I'm mostly seeing if I can obfuscate my card details - the card limit is more of a nice feature but not needed

They do that too, because they generate a unique virtual card number each time.
