Trying out Sidekick, Ferdium, Station, RamBox now.

Curious to hear what people's opinions are on these, and if there are any I'm missing.

I've visited the websites of all of the browsers you listed. All of them have the same-ish UI. I don't really know what a 'workspace browser' is so I don't have nearly as concrete of an opinion as someone that uses one of these daily. But, from the UI alone, they feel like the Opera web browser (they are definitely not the same, and probably serve different purposes but this is the impression I get). Does one of these browsers have more features? Which one do you feel comfortable using?

Also, unrelated, but can you or someone else explain to me what is a 'workspace browser'? What purpose does one of these serve?

What is a workspace browser

We heard you like tabs so we put tabs in your tabs.

That’s all they are, really. Sets of tabs you can switch between. It’s not a bad concept if you’re using web based stuff exclusively, but I didn’t find it as useful as multiple desktops.

i used one of the above, rambox i believe. Its kinda like what you say abd every tab is its own container with its own cookies etc. I used to use it mostly for work to be logged into 2 or more separate AWS accounts at the same time. If you dont know, without something like ff container tabs, logging into a different aws account in a second browser tab invalidates your session in the first tab
