Yes, the cell tower can see the unique IMEI of your phone, so as long as the cell radio is on, the cell company can at least see what tower that IMEI is in range of. And if they can track the purchase of the phone to you, then they can identify your signal.
The key enrollment that Mint did sounds like registering the Machine Owner Key (MOK). That basically tells the bios that anything signed with that key should be permitted. The MOK is especially required when compiling your own drivers. Anything shipped by a Linux distro should already be signed so that the shim will permit it. SecureBoot is more about making sure your boot files haven’t been tampered with rather than being about preventing the owner from doing something.
You should already be able to boot any modern Linux OS that has support for SecureBoot. Only if you compile your own drivers or kernel would you need to use a MOK. If you do need that, you should be able to enroll another MOK or copy the MOK key files from the Mint install and use those keys to sign drivers in any other Linux distro.
The cli program mokutil will let you view and export your enrolled MOKs.
Tailscale (https://tailscale.com/) works great for remote access to your private services. Once the wireguard tunnel is established, then the traffic is peer-to-peer (assuming it’s configured correctly) and not through their centralized servers. Even from a mobile device.
It probably won’t affect Fedora because that’s already a consumer-oriented distro. For me, it’s a philosophical question. Do you want to run a distro that is supported by a company who would behave that way?
What did you find in Fedora that you didn’t find in the other distros? Was it something about the graphical interface, or was it more about the system packaging ecosystem and developers?
In the Debian GNU/Hurd case it's even less practical due to the many limitations of Hurd and its primitive hardware support.
Given the Hurd limitations, Debian GNU/Hurd is mostly practical in VMs.
Debian GNU/Hurd is currently available for i386 and can build around 65% of the Debian archive.
Since the prior Debian GNU/Hurd release, APIC, SMP, and 64-bit support has improved a lot but is still a work-in-progress.
Debian GNU/Hurd has improved a bit over the past decade since last time testing it but is still very much limited and niche compared to Debian GNU/Linux.

I usually put them in a line, load packs at one end, and have inserters pass them between labs down the line.

It was a very popular song in the 80s. Jenny’s phone number was 867-5309.

If you’re ever at a store and need a frequent shopper card, this number with your local area code is usually registered.
