This is exactly what I do. Brave for work, Firefox for private.

  It would be interesting if Firefox could release two nearly identical browsers: Firefox Home, and Firefox Work. The only difference between the two is the name and the color of the icon. With both programs in their computers, or both apps on their phones, people could more easily isolate the two phases of life, without going through all the rigamarole of profiles.

    I haven't gotten into the habit of using them, but I believe this is how the Multi-Account Containers add-on works.

      You can use containers, but those only apply to cookies, etc, everything else, settings, add-ons, etc, will be the same. Different profiles allow for different sets of add-ons, bookmarks, settings, etc.

    You've really just described profiles, Firefox just needs to make them easier to use like Chrome. On Chrome they're easier to find, allow you to configure the profile icon, and give you the option to create a desktop shortcut to the profile. Mobile is probably more tricky.

    You can set a skin or persona per profile, and they will look different.

    I use Firefox Developer Edition alongside regular firefox precisely for that purpose: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/developer/ https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/developer/

    You can use FF Developer Edition for work. I would do that, but I use FF for home and Edge at work.
