I agree - but there's no native Windows app. I don't want to have to shift through a dozen tabs in Chrome to find one for Fibery, I want to just click an icon on my desktop. I also want Desktop-specific features like Right-click.

I know a neat trick. Install a different browser and use it for just that. Pick the extensions and bookmarks, configure the home page then enjoy having nothing else inthere.
You know... I know a guy who has several different Google Chromes installed on his Mac. Google Chrome, Google Chrome (2), Google Chrome (3), etc. (He has an intellectual disability. This kind of thing happens.) I guess you could have as many as you wanted and name them anything you wanted, right? It's like taking your favorite web apps and Electron-izing them.

It does exactly what you are talking about but with only one copy of Chrome.
