People who have ever been in a PhD program: how many programs did you apply to and how many did you get accepted into? Waitlisted? Rejected? I thank you in advance if you’re willing to be honest about this and share!
applied to three and was accepted to all, but to my knowledge in the UK and Ireland it is hard to get rejected from a PhD since it is common to do them self-funded there. Getting funding is extremely difficult there.

YY, this. Definitely best to focus on programmes/supervisors who have your back with funding applications and who have practical contingency plans if you don't get funding (eg., will they help you find work - teaching/admin etc. - that might boost your CV while paying the bills).
