Switching between profiles (self.vivaldi_browser)

Hello I just moved (from Brave) to Vivaldi and I have to say I quite like it.

But I have also quite a big blocker.

I use my browser with two profiles (this I was able to also do in Vivaldi) but I want to use some sort of shortcuts to switch between two Vivaldi windows (each running it own profile).

On Brave (or Chrome) I was able to do this by setting name of the browser and together with Context (window switcher) I just wrote 3 letters of the name and I was moved to that window. But now I just see [Title of the curent tab] - Vivaldi for all of them.

Is there a way (can be some other, using some other software) to switch to a specific window which is running specific Profile?

Hello fellow Vivaldi enjoyer!

I don't use multiple accounts myself by I did a quick search and it looks like there are multiple ways of running multiple accounts simultaneously. There are links in that thread too, so just pick which solution best suits your needs.

I don’t think we are talking about the same thing - I DO use multiple accounts at the same time, problem is that I can’t find I want how to “move” to a window with profile A and then to window with profile B using only keyboard (aka.: window switcher) the only way is to manually “look” for another window
