For me it would be the following:

  1. Don't reuse usernames/names
  2. Avoid using social media
  3. Use Tor/VPN when you can

Wow. Lemmy's user base has really pidgeon-holed itself in these comments. Just observing, not critcizing. Interesting to see. Privacy to most people here means privacy from big tech and government. Responses are also largely technology-focused solutions rather than personal practices.

I'm going to throw "Don't give out your personal information" into the ring to round things out.
