This is a question about Tor Browser in specific.

I've found a number of websites [0] [1] [2] that explicitly warn of
visiting your personal website over tor. The explanation is always that
if you "access other sites in the same session", an eavesdropper would
deduce that it was the owner of the (little-read) personal site.

Doesn't Tor Browser use a new circuit for each domain? Is the advice
faulty or am I missing something?
I think this advice was aimed for the time before Tor Browser utilized
circuit isolation for each website. However you should still be aware
that tracking cookies could contaminate the other circuits within the
same browser session.

Which Tracking cookies?
Not the ones mentioned under "Identifier Unlinkability Defenses in the Tor Browser"?
