Multi-Account Containers
-
I would love to see this implemented on Vivaldi! I need to use multiple accounts of a given service for work purposes and this would come really handy!
-
I would love to see this tightly integrated with the new workspaces, with a simple 'isolate workspace data' sort-of option. This would mean I would always have my personal email logged into my Personal workspace, and my work one on the respective workspace. This would actually make multi account containers useful and organized, unlike in Firefox imo.
-
It's an really interessting concept and I also think it would be a nice addition to all the great things we allready have for tab-management.
I friend of mine was wondered that Vivaldi hasn't something like that.
I haven't heard about it before, but I would love to get this implemented.

Without being intergrated into Workspaces multiaccount containers are VERY useful cause I can go to a site then another and neither gets any information from the other.

my temp solution for facebook is to install facebook app from microsoft store, with it i can use my other FB account aside from the one m using in vivaldi

I'm genuinely surprised that no other browser does this except for Firefox. NONE. Sessionbox is subpar at best. Find myself tinkering with the extension more than actually working.
If there's a Chromium browser that can get this feature implemented, it would be game-changing.
I feel like Arc browser will be released for Windows before a tab container feature is released for a Chromium browser. Might just have to hang tight until then.
BTW: Creating separate profiles is not the answer to this solution. As others have stated in this thread, I'm not interested in creating a whole new browser instance (taking up more resources) while also resetting up bookmarks, sync accounts, browser settings, etc.

Never have had a issue with it.

I also miss this feature. Ideally leave each workspace isolating cookies and sessions.
I know that it is possible to create another profile and open a new window, but if we already have the workspaces they can do this isolation just like firefox containers and sessionBox -
@edugsdf For me, the ideal solution would be an approach like in the SessionBox extension, where we can have a separate session on each tab.
The ability to enable a specific session/container per workspace or window would be another great feature.

I just went through a Container setup in Wavebox (now named 'Cookie Containers' to better describe the functionality), and I find it very compelling and helpful.
If Vivaldi continues to provide more and more (great) features -- My vote is Yes!
-
This is definitely a functionality you can't live without once you've used it. That or just go through the pain of managing multiple profiles or different browsers.
Would love to see it implemented in Vivaldi now that some new browsers are coming with this functionality out of the box.

Please stop the discussion and start working on it. The source is here:
https://github.com/mozilla/multi-account-containers/#readmeJust start by adding a checkbox on the Workspaces creation dialog (isolate on/off).
Later you could add features like (always open URL1 in WorkspaceX)
PS: I don't want to sound rude, but i just saw the discussion is going back and forth for five years now.
-
@werty1st That is the source code for a web extension for the firefox browser. With those sources you could make the extension show a button in vivaldi, but it would not do anything, because vivaldi would still need to implement all the "under the hood" mechanics to make this work.
This is not a simple task, and vivaldi doesn't have huge resources like mozilla or google, that's why these discussions have been going on for so long.
-
I think it's very easy to implement containers in Vivaldi due to its own user interface. Vivaldi can create additional user profiles and run separate instances of the browser behind the scenes, but the user will see it all in one window. Otherwise, you don't even have to create an analog of Firefox containers, just make it possible to work in several profiles simultaneously in one browser window.
-
Whilst I totally agree that this feature is a must have (and I dearly miss it), I believe that this feature is sold as a privacy enhancing thing which is not entirely true. Modern Tracking techniques include so many other things than cookies that it's almost trivial for a given company to track you. I mean, you probably connect with the same IP, Sam MAC and so on
On the other hand, this feature is so incredibly useful for just separating cookies and logins that I don't even care about its privacy enhancements, if any. If Firefox would improve its sandboxing and overall performance it would be close to perfect for my day-to-day needs. So, pretty please, consider implementing this feature, Vivaldi team!
-
It may not be easy, but at this point, out of ALL the open feature requests, this one has the most votes. It should make the cut.
-
Like others have mentioned, being able to have separate profiles under one Vivaldi sync account and browser profile would be very convenient. Browser profiles are only good to sync with multiple accounts, or for trivial activities that do not need to be synchronised… anyway adding my +1 as workspaces are not useful at moment for me without the isolation of cookies/sessions.
-
That would really be the best... and it would save me from using multiple browsers
-
@Duthcorund For this purpose there are working spaces. Please read the whole article:
-
@stardepp I use workspaces already, but from my understanding cookies are not separated between them, as this feature request suggest, and I would like that.
