    I tend to use Firefox for my media needs (YouTube, streaming platforms, anime sites), but I try not to have more than one FF window so I don’t have to select a window when clicking on the taskbar icon. So, I do all my other browsing on Chromium platforms (Chrome, Edge, Opera), each with a different purpose, like all of my research goes on Chrome and my social media/ utility apps go on Opera because of the workspace segregation functionality. Privacy issues notwithstanding. I wish there was a way to accomplish this without chromium, I just don’t see enough diversity in browser options. So, I settle for Chrome, which used to be pretty great but is becoming cruddier with each successive update.

      There’s a Firefox addon by Mozilla called “Container Tabs”, it allows you to make seperate “containers” for tabs, allowing you to seperate shopping, social media, etc. There are also 3rd party extensions to make specific containers for Google, Amazon, Facebook, and so on. It’s very useful for separating your online life whilst maintaining one browser!

      Edit: also, you can set a color for different containers and it shows that color in a thin bar at the top of the tab, which shows on all tabs. Non-container’d tabs don’t have a bar at all.
