Damn I also hate the Google accounts mayhem. I will look into those containers.

Right now I manually type ?authuser=1 into my URLs to have Google Docs open in the right account, but this breaks when I restart the browser and the page reloads with the wrong account... Why Google removes this parameter from URLs after loading is beyond me.



It feels like multi-user management with google is a feature which was not really considered from the start and never become important enough to refactor the whole thing.


Do they need to refactor much though? I would they could fix it in Chrome, and accomplish basically the same thing.


I have no idea how the product is structured, but I do know that many other services have a similar issue.

Heck, we’re using outlook at one of my customers and I can’t even open a second tab in 2020. It will just block the UI telling me there is another tab open.
