Firefox recently removed support for SSB (Site Specific Browser) and PWA (Progressive Web Apps). That's the only reason I have Chrome installed, since I like to have different apps in different windows, and keep my browser tabs for websites.

It seems like Big Corps are afraid of PWA. Apple made a lot to make it harder to make a web app in ios safari; not talking about PWA.

Well, the recent EU regulations are certainly going to force a change in Apple's behaviour.

This is probably the most insane thing Mozilla has done in recent times, and they have done a lot of insane things.

I'd do the same thing, but Firefox is the browser I'd like to share data with. That's where my cookies, add-ons and user scripts live.

I think it would be better to have chromium or brave installed of chromium, since you use FireFox.

You could use different Firefox profiles for this...

But the icon in the task bar would always be the Firefox one. PWAs solve all the problems here.

I've tried a lot of things. Every option I'm aware of sucks. Even using multiple profiles (which would mostly break the reasons to want to use the same browser) is not really supported (lots of issues with window switching on both Linux and macOS).

I just open multiple browser windows...

[sorenjan]

I don't need or want the browser chrome like tabs and toolbars on those windows, and I usually pin them in the taskbar using their own icons. Makes alt-tab nicer too. I don't use it myself, but PWAs can also register as file handlers and be used to open files like any other installed program, which would be handy for image editors and similar.
