I mean, the advice I've heard for one who's threat model is "the feds are actively trying to identify me" is to have a dedicated burner computer that you do all of your illegal activities on and no other activities. Then of course on top of that avoid saving secrets onto the device and type them in manually every time (ephemeral distros like Tails are good for that)
