I use Chrome or Chromium only for a few websites designed by idiots
who hardcode their websites to Chrome. For my "daily driver", I use
"Pale Moon" http://www.palemoon.org/ It was forked from Firefox, way
back when Firefox was a decent web browser. Pale Moon still has
powerful XUL extensions, not Firefox/Chrome crippleware web-extensions.

I've got a couple of dozen profiles set up, some of which are rarely
used. They launch as separate instances with separate configs. 3rd
party cookies from one profile cannot be picked up by websites in
another profile. With ICEWM sub-menus I can launch specific websites,
or for that matter specific spreadsheets, etc.
