It's not an identical feature, but I have some workflows which require Chromium and compartmentalization between a multiple accounts, and Brave's profiles aren't a bad alternative.

#5What would be needed to support this in private browsing mode? I would like to keep things separate and toss everything when I'm done.

#6Last week I finally removed some bugs from my multi-instance chrome scripts on macOS.
I basically have different applications of chrome, each with a different profile. They wacht have a different app icon, browser color, and extensions.
It helps me focus a lot to have a different application (cmd-tab entry) for dev, media, general browsing.
Social media and other time traps are blocked on my general and dev browser.
Works very well I have to say. It copies Chrome using clonefiles (CoW on apfs) to save space.
The only thing is that updating goes through the main browser (automatic updates are buggy in this case). And I have to codesign when there’s an update, but the scripts take care of that.

On stock Firefox, it appears that I can do everything listed in the documentation above, with the exception that this extension appears to allow you to configure a domain to automatically open in a given container. Is that the only difference?

This is the user interface to that built-in container support.

Or you hop between different AWS accounts.
