They said nothing about that functionality, but yes it is nice for a completely different use case.
Comment on Mozilla Firefox is Working on a Tab Grouping Feature
numbermess@kbin.social 8 months agoThe Multi-Account Containers extension is great for this. Each container keeps its own context, so you can be logged in to the same service twice (or more) in tabs in one window. Can set it up so that some sites will always use a certain container, or that sites in a container will always use a proxy. That is EXTREMELY useful to me.

Unfortunately, containers only isolate cookies and session data. It doesn’t isolate history, bookmarks, saved logins, etc akin to Chrome’s profiles. A major use of this is separating work and personal browsing.
Firefox technically has profiles as well (via about:profiles), but there’s no profile switcher separate from an internal page.

Helpful, but not what I’m looking for personally. I want to be logged into the same account, just have groups of tabs related to different tasks I’m working on. Could be documentation for various frameworks or tooling related to whichever language I’m working on. Chrome had this and it worked great.

I just open a new window and that helps keep things organized well for me, but idk, maybe it’s a case of not knowing what I’m missing out on.
