- You can have multiples tabs in different containers in a single window. - You can tell your browser you always want to open a given site in a given container, so if you forget and try to open in the wrong one, it will remind you and give you the option to use the right one. - The name of the container you're in is shown at the end of the address bar, in the unlikely case you forget. Every tab has a thin line of a different color per containers as well, so it's easier to tell them apart.

None of these things offers a big advantage over using virtual desktops, for example, but it's good to have choices.



> You can have multiples tabs in different containers in a single window.

I literally want the _opposite_ of that. Chrome makes it so that a Window is specific to a profile. Makes it very simple to keep say Work and Home profiles separate, for example. Especially if you set color schemes for each window.


> I literally want the _opposite_ of that.

That's fine, but not everyone does. I think both are useful and would prefer a browser that can support both profiles and "containers.


You can use the old profiles feature for this.
