Ok so I really wanna switch, but I need to have multiple Gmail accounts active at the same time for work, as we have various logins tied to various profiles. From what I can tell Firefox doesn't yet support multiple profiles being active at the same time. Do I have any options here? I need to be able to access the support inbox and login to our platform, while simultaneously being logged in to my own email and my platform login. Chrome profiles makes this easy, annoyingly.
You have a couple options, as others have mentioned: multiple browser profiles and container tabs. The profiles don’t work quite as well as in Chrome because switching between them isn’t as convenient. Besides that, it’s the same thing. Container tabs is where it’s at. With those, you can use multiple profiles in the same window and set up rules to open certain sites in specific containers. Also check out the Simple Tab Groups extension. It’s similar to Vivaldi’s workspaces but more powerful when combined with container tabs.
