Also if you have multiple microsoft 365 accounts, switching between those in the webapp seems to be impossible for years already. There's a switch account option, you can click it and sign in to another account, except you just stay logged in as the previous account.

Firefox "Containers" are great for this. I have color-coded tabs for various customer work accounts / tenants.
Yes, they are a life-saver. I use them all the time for various AWS accounts. The guy who told me about it years ago has saved me countless hours.
AWS finally added the ability to swap between a few accounts [1]. There’s an arbitrary limit of 5 so it’s really bad if, say, you work for an enterprise and have lots of accounts or, say, you work for a smaller business following the AWS Well-Architected Framework and isolate things. Containers still win.

I am not sure… a microsoft login normally seems to jump across tens of different domains and my firefox containers get confused and it often fails if the stars are not well aligned.
Oh yeah, I can only actually use them via private browsing (or nuking cookies, of course)
