I think containers (that Firefox already has) are a much better way to handle this. Profiles, art least the way they are implemented on chrome, feels like a massive downgrade.

It depends on how much separation you need. If you want different bookmarks, history, or settings per, then I believe you need profiles to make that happen.

Ah, makes sense. I don't mind sharing history and have never used bookmarks or customized any settings.
