Seeing as people get away with this shit all the time, this is what Multi-Account Containers on Firefox are for.

You can containerise each website or list of websites to a different tab group that can't share cookies with each other.

I'm switched to Firefox because of that feature :) Google has its own room, what do you keep isolated

Social media, search engines, email, banking, shopping, news etc. I even have one for my self-hosted stuff.

The only real limitation I've had so far is that it doesn't have enough colours. I think there may be improvements on the way though as Mozilla did a survey about it a while ago which I completed.

You may want to keep some things in the same group such as Reddit and Youtube. Without cookies to keep you signed in on Youtube, embedded videos on Reddit often won't work.

besides keeping work separate, i have separate containers for amazon sites and separate ones for google for the little i use it for. it ships with a facebook one, or maybe thats a similar plugin.
