For a long time this was the reason I didn't move to Brave, but eventually I realized I don't need it so much because Brave already sandboxes cookies for each site so some social media or ad network won't be able to track me across different sites.
The remaining use for multi-account containers now is staying logged in with different accounts to the same site, which for my usecase I can do with Brave profiles.
Now Brave is my major browser and once in a while I'll bring up Librefox. Firefox lost me when they went all in with their strategy to feed user data into AI presumably for ad purposes.
- ahmetcadirci25 1y agoI don't care about cookies at all — what matters to me is being able to log into multiple, separate accounts. Creating browser profiles feels like starting everything from scratch: settings, extensions, and more. It's just not practical. With Firefox, you set your preferences and extensions once, and from then on, tab-based profiles work flawlessly. I wish Chrome had a similar feature — a container system at the tab level.

Right-click → "Open Link in New Container Tab" is something I do too routinely for profile-switching to be a viable alternative.
