Why not just use firefox profiles ?
- vmception 6y agofor one it sounds like then I would have to use Firefox more often, I like the Chrome interface more although I can concede the resource hogging has gotten annoying for two, I don't know anything about Firefox profiles, does that create a profile for my extensions too? Will multiple firefox profiles have different metamask instances segregated?
- mkl 6y agoThen why not Chrome profiles? As with Firefox, the profiles are completely disconnected, and have different history, extensions, cookies, etc. If you don't like Chrome's resource hogging, try something like The Great Suspender.
- everythingswan 6y agoI've been using this combo for a while and it works really well. I have 2-4 profiles open at one time and just whitelist my inbox and a few other sites/apps I frequent while working. Great Suspender makes it totally viable.
- spurgu 6y agoFirefox containers share extensions, but maybe Firefox has profiles as well that I haven't noticed (after using it for 2-3 weeks now)?

I've started using them recently to have entirely seperate environments for personal and work websites and it's a blessing. Previously I used 2 browsers just like you, now I have the unlimited power of Firefox AdBlockers in every environment.
- tzs 6y agoDoesn't that just provide separation of cookies (and maybe cache)? If you want entirely separate environments (cookies, cache, bookmarks, history, extensions) I believe you need to use multiple profiles.
