Chromium has better features, but with google announcing its plan to 'drm the internet' I 'm not sure if it'd be a good idea.

I tried googling about Chrome containerization of tabs and found nothing. Can you elaborate?

In fact, searching "chrome tab containerization" only results in discussions asking if there's a way to use something like firefox's containers on chrome. -

Also isn't that what Firefox containers do?

It's not per tab, but I don't see how that would be useful. I add specific topics and then make / destroy the containers as needed.

It's already annoying enough logging into the sites per container, I can't imagine doing that every time I open a tab.

This is the even better sandboxing. You can only give access to the groups container.

It's one of the main features of Vivaldi

I was talking about site isolation which is nog available in all of Firefox versions, my apologies!

Looks like it has been in the base Firefox since 2021: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Project_Fission
