What do they do?
Firefox just implemented profiles so long as you have separate emails
Container tabs
It's like how different browsers can be logged in to different accounts with the same webmail at the same time, but all in the tabs instead.
Temporary containers
Basically a new incognito window in each new tab.
They play nicely together, my usual setup is temporary containers for regular browsing and a pop up asking me which user I'm logging in as - in that specific tab - when visiting sites I'm regularly logging in to.
It's basically having website cookies completely isolated in the same profile. You can also create containers for each website automatically so they can't talk to each other. If you like having multiple emails from the same provider open, you can do that without logging out or making a new Firefox profile, so it's like having all your settings and add-ons with the website flexibility of another profile.
