Some of the first few links from the DDG search might be worth reviewing:

This is for Ubuntu and the
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72827703/how-to-disable-file-indexing-in-ubuntu-22-04-tracker3

[wmcdonald@fedora ~ ]$ rpm -qc tracker-miners
/etc/xdg/autostart/tracker-miner-fs-3.desktop
/etc/xdg/autostart/tracker-miner-rss-3.desktop

[wmcdonald@fedora ~ ]$ cat /etc/xdg/autostart/tracker-miner-fs-3.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Tracker File System Miner
Comment=Crawls and processes files on the file system
Exec=/usr/libexec/tracker-miner-fs-3
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Utility;
X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true
X-GNOME-HiddenUnderSystemd=true
X-KDE-autostart-after=panel
X-KDE-StartupNotify=false
X-KDE-UniqueApplet=true
NoDisplay=true
OnlyShowIn=GNOME;KDE;XFCE;X-IVI;Unity;
X-systemd-skip=true

also help.
