If one chats/mails with a person using Windows, despite using secure private protocols, every message will be stored by Microsoft's Windoze Recall. Either I'm missing something but this feature seems like the most grotesque breach in online privacy/security.

What are ways to avoid this except for using obfuscated text?

If the content CNA be displayed, it can be parsed by recall.

The only way I can see to bypass it is to obtain DRM keys and display your content on a website only if widevine is active, like Netflix does. Surely it can't screenshot DRM protected content, but also this is Microsoft .

Lol what if microsoft accidenttly gives people a way around that. Want to screenshot something from netflix? Just watch it then look where recall stores all the screenshots!
