Does Safari have decent cookie management?
Yes, I think so. My only complaint about it is the window for managing cookies (and other data, like caches, local storage, HSTS policies(?)) can take awhile to populate. But I'm still using an iMac with a hard drive, that would likely not be an issue if using a SSD.

It allows you to see the domain name of each website that has data on your computer, and you can remove them individually or all at once.

It has saved me many times when I've come across a site that wouldn't load due to corrupted cookies or other data, and deleting it let it load properly.

That said, I'm looking for a proper cookie manager to auto delete cookies for some sites. A few sites I visit set a cookie to count every time I go there, and some will only give you one or two free articles per month (or ever) without paying. Some will let you read for free if you allow ads, then bombard you with animated crap or make the page load so ad heavy it's unreadable anyway. I refuse to put up with that nonsense.
