Just using a VPN myself I did download that TOR but it seemed to be really slow, could have been my internet or VPN but it would be annoying to use all the time for me.

This makes perfect sense. From all I've read re: gov't monitoring the TOR tracking is something they almost certainly do, even if it doesn't lead to any warrants 99.999% of the time they've still got you in their Big Data for any future interest.
VPNs shove the TOR visibility to the Internet side of the VPN provider, which if in another country (and not one of the Five Eyes who actively share monitoring data -- US, Britain, and... uh... three others) should make it real tough for any LE to readily track you down on the net.
And VPN usage is super common and has been for decades for many purposes, originally linking business branches with private tunnels (much cheaper than the dedicated phone company links of old) and then for inter-business links and work-at-home types. That was 20+ years ago and today it's far more widespread so I can't see LE trying to track all of that as possible shady activity. But who knows, it's still possible -- they do record insane amounts of metadata on all traffic ever since the Patriot Act.

I don't dark web often but I use my VPN on a regular basis for certain websites and also when I am up or downloading data.

TOR is for the non-public Internet (Darknet, Deepweb) not for the normal endpoint releated internet.
You can certainly use it for both. It isn't like it won't resolve non-onion links.
Works just fine as a very thin VPN for that but if doing anything truly sketchy then a VPN running under your TOR circuit is highly recommended.

A bit overkill for buying small amounts of steroids. Probably a very good idea if you are a vendor though.
VPN
A must when buying steroids and visiting Meso.
Even if you are just browsing the web these days you really need a trustworthy VPN on at all times.
Keeping a clean house
I personally don't, because I have nowhere else to store my gear, but I can understand the logic.
Encrypted email (ProtonMail).
A must for anyone buying steroids. Make sure you only email other ProtonMail addresses. As these are the only ones encrypted. If your vendor doesn't have ProtonMail fuck them.
Cryptocurrency.
Always favor Monero over Bitcoin. Bitcoin is ok I guess but make sure not to send directly from the exchange you are buying from to the vendor. First put it into a local wallet and then send to the vendor. I would really advice you to use Monero where its possible though.
GPG
Only needed on darknet really, in terms of buying drugs that is.
