I was a huge user of single site browsers... when I was on OSX.

Now I miss them, but I just couldn't live with the random crashing.

Are there any good SSB tools for Linux, or even better, for FreeBSD, as someone else mentioned, Electron just does not cut it at all for this. SSB and the Omni Group software are the only things I really miss from OSX :-/

I'm on Debian and I simply use Chromium for that. Here's an example of how it works:

chromium --user-data-dir=/custom/webapp/dir/ --app=http://example.com

Works just fine, I can recommend it. Note that you need to create the custom dir yourself, it's where Chromium will store everything related to that instance.
