I am unfamiliar with it, but the profile manager in FF does not seem to be on the same level as Chrome. In Chrome you can change the profile and reopen your previous tabs by clicking in the top right.

With FF, you have to quit FF and type in the terminal 'firefox -P'.

They are not at the same level.

Containers are really bad at saving your workspace: tabs with a profile so I can just shut down work at the end of the day or on a weekend.

You don't have to quit FF to do this, and you can use about:profiles.

Sure they are, ensure your "open tabs from last time" pref is selected in settings.
