Ask HN: How do you use multiple browsers? Dealing with history in all at once?

Firefox with containers for multiple work accounts/social/browsing means I only use one browser now. Before containers I’d only open Safari/chromium for any form of social media. Bitwarden for cross-device password management can help too.

Thanks for the suggestion. I love firefox for the privacy and being light-weighted yet they are lacking some features (zooming with touchpad on mac like in chromium browsers) and have some bad bugs (e.g. column-reverse flex not scrolling). Do your separate accounts lead to the same history tab or are they stored separately?

Same history.

You can take this approach further with Temporary Containers, where each tab is isolated from the rest e.g. if domains differ.

It's excellent for privacy.
