I have a couple (e.g spam, uni, personal) and it’s so profoundly unhelpful to make me sign into them one at a time by coordinating between 2 or more different devices. an occasional spot check for security would make sense if I was just booted out of one account, but instead it logs me out of every single one at once?? What gives?

    Sounds like Google doesn’t create per-account cookies and uses one cookie set per browser instance, so you’re either logged in or you’re logged out, one account at a time.

    Browser containers or profiles might be the answer to what you need.

    I’ve been using different Firefox profiles to run accounts in parallel for well over a decade at this point. Containers might be able to do the same thing, but on account of the aforementioned, I’ve stuck with the old way of doing things.
