Firefox can do all this too if you really want, however, I absolutely do not want this - syncing between work persona (laptop) and home persona (phone).

You can create a separate profile in Firefox by going to "about:profiles", desktop only (it looks ugly, and it's hard to use, I know, but it does work). This way you can have both personas on the same device without mixing them up.

Too bad it does not work on mobile and the UX for it is so bad on desktop. It's a great feature that I wish Firefox invested in.
