Multi-Account Containers
-
whats the difference to "private tabs" where each tab get its own cookies?
-
@schreck With this feature, specific pages would automatically get put in a separate context, instead of a private window where you manually have to open one each time.
-
Ultimately, this feature needs to have a place in the "Vivaldi agenda". If you ask me, Mozilla came up with one of the most privacy relevant yet most user-friendly features of all time in browsing with this extention. Sure, you could customise, program something like this by and for yourself or use a 3rd. party product. But is this going to work for 98% of users and would that be an efficent and native solution? Nope.
I've added this thread to my watchlist.

I just installed the sessionbox extension from the chrome webstore into vivaldi-snapshot. Works great!
-
@brucknerawalter BTW: sessionbox does NOT work in opera(-developer)

I know you can now create new profiles to kinda get around this problem but this would still be really good to implement, I have tried creating new profiles but find it just does not work as well as multi containers in firefox.
I have my Vivaldi set how I like it. I don't want to have to keep importing settings to achieve the look and feel I need. Firefox it still is I'm afraid.
-
This here is honestly the only thing preventing me from switching from Firefox to Vivaldi as my main browser. Until this is done, it will remain my secondary. Once the mobile beta released, that solved 1 or my 2 main problems with Vivaldi. However, an iOS/iPadOS app would be really nice too, even though it'd just be webkit, it could be basic but just allow tab syncing and stuff.

The containers addon really needs to be added. I'm basically stuck with Firefox until some other browsers start to use the feature. Containers are NOT a private window and NOT a profile manager, it is so much more and mainly how it functions in the UI.
You can setup a personal container and a work container for example. Open a tab as personal and visit gmail and you get your personal gmail. Open a tab as work, visit gmail, and you get your work gmail.
Sites can also be forced to a specific container (tab). So if you directly visit reddit, click a link to reddit, or are directed to reddit the site will load only in the social container.
Containers can be assigned colors and an icon so by just glancing at your tabs you know which are work, personal, or social.
IMO containers are hands down the best feature since Chrome landed. At this point I'll need to be paid a hefty sum to move to a browser that does not have containers.

I've wondered if Opera starting this feature (they call them workspaces and they're not very feature rich yet) would get this feature prioritized.
-
Oh, nice catch! Good to see the idea spreading.
-
I like this.

adding my wish to see this feature on vivaldi, it is probably the last thing that i need on vivaldi to change from firefox to it. I am using vivaldi for many things, mainly media (videos and streams) but i do all the account stuff and real work on firefox because containers really make my life easier and i like the privacy(very important)
-
Very useful feature. A must-have for the modern web.

I would really like a facebook container to keep facebook in a box. likewise with google. This is firefox's biggest selling feature.
-
Just adding my "me to", this keeps me from using vivaldi 100% for everything. Trying to use AWS multi-account in the console is a pita without firefox containers.
-
The same for me guys, I keep using Firefox because of this feature.
