I have not used FF Containers but will be giving it a try. Though I use Profiles extensively in Brave. I have my work account, personal account, Social and many other apps like various AWS Consoles for multiple accounts open all at the same time. Profiles allow me to login to them individually. I love the privacy features of Orion (just one day of use so far) and I like that it is not Chrome based. Thank you!

Profiles like Chromium browsers

Profiles would be greatly appreciated here too. I'd love to be able to seperate my work and personal logins / history / bookmarks.
We expect it within a month.

We planned to work on this over the summer but hit a streak of very hard to deal problems like Ventura beta updates and memory leaks that blocked us. Consider subscribing to Orion so we can expand our team.

Waiting patiently for this!
Edit: Adding some of my usage patterns for how I use profiles. I have two virtual desktops and two separate Chrome profile windows opened on each of my desktop. One is personal and other one is work. This goes for the browser keeping the sessions, passwords and everything else separated and goes for the virtual desktops as well. Windows, even remembers that If I open up my profile using a shortcut (the shortcut part is very important), it automatically switches desktop as it remembers which desktop I use for what kind of app. It is kind of cool but macOS does not do that. On macOS I can still right click the browser icon in dock and select the profile I want to open, without having to go through the profile switcher screen every-time on startup. I've tried containers - but they seem not that useful to me. Profiles are like using a separate computer - Your extensions, bookmarks, history, passwords, login sessions, themes, download settings - everything is different except it's your favorite browser!
This feature would be game changer,
It's only reason why i'm stuck with chrome.
This feature is the only thing that's stopping me from adopting Orion as my default browser. It's absolutely essential.
As a freelancer I have multiple work accounts on same sites, and I need to be able to open them at the same time in different profiles. Also I have multiple computers and want to be able to open these profiles (with their own history, bookmarks, extensions etc) on multiple computers with it all being synced automatically. Chrome has this almost perfect, except the part where Google spys on everything to serve me more ads. I will pay to get away from Google for a worthy replacement; I hope its Orion.
+1 Yes please this is the last people need to switch from Chrome. We need the chrome users interface, to be able to switch and jump between users and accounts.
+1 for this - Since I work with multiple clients, I use a different profile for each one to ensure that they stay separate from each other. Definitely not a need for every user, but a super needed use case with me. Even if the extensions synced across, that would be honestly better. I just need to ensure browsing history, cookies, and bookmarks are separate with each profile.
+1 Just giving Orion a try today and this is my favorite chrome feature that has me locked to it. Seperating work and personal is huge
In Chromium Browsers like Microsoft Edge, and Brave, there are Browser Profiles. These let you keep a certain account and all it's parts like extensions and accounts in two separate places. Could something like this be implemented please, because it would be a big help with school and making sure that my school extentions can't access my private data.
