I had to do a minor presentation a few days ago, involving logging into several different AWS accounts. The main content of my presentation went absolutely under the radar because the audience were way more interested in how I was able to open and switch between multiple AWS accounts in different tabs. I use another add-on that automatically creates new containers for AWS accounts launched from the SSO screen. And if I type 'gmail' in the browser, it lists my 3 accounts, and depending on which one I choose, it opens it in the correct container so I can have all three open simultaneously, without any messing around.

I was deploying out past phrases in a password manager to our company. My presrntation was definitely undercut by the methods I use to browse the internet, and using an HDMI adapter direct to iPhone. To them… it was like I fired up a custom rolled Linux distro from 20 years in the future and used minority report hand controls on it. Really set some expectations for me on my next presentation.

  Could you elaborate on the browsing methods?

    Trust me, nothing you would be impressed about. Middle click to open tab, control C in a password manager, and then remember a minute later to paste it where it belongs, switching between tabs quickly, getting an SMS, and only glancing at it quickly enough to remember the number and type it in.

      It's amazing how such normal every-minute tasks for tech people like us are freaking wizardry to the average user. Whenever I'm on my home office PC and on the phone with anyone in my family, they make some comment about how my typing sounds like a machine gun or something.

  I'm not near my laptop right now but I think it's just called "AWS SSO Containers". And I also use containerise (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/containerise/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/containerise/) to pattern match urls to tabs
