Private browsing all the time to automatically clear cookies and not share sessions between tabs (unfortunately there isn't a better way to automatically clear cookies with Safari, this is the best solution I know of).
AdGuard as a content blocker with the majority of the blocking lists enabled (not as good as uBlock Origin, but better than nothing).
No Android (obviously).
Preferring built-in apps on mobile (iOS) rather than third-party alternatives as the majority of them have spyware and malware like analytic SDKs or the Facebook SDK in them.
Using the GDPR to try and force companies to be more privacy-respectful. There are certain local businesses I want to use but can't because of malicious SDKs in their apps so I try to use the GDPR to force them to provide a toggle or outright remove them and escalate to the regulator if necessary.
