Another one just to support this.

Workspace isolation should be the best thing to happen… it will give the organization of Opera with the containers of Firefox.

BTW that is how I always envisioned what Workspace should be… Firefox containers is too unorganized because you can have a tab from work at side from a tab from school.

Workspace fix and organize that.
Now we need that each Workspace can have it own set of cookies, logins, etc.

Make this happen… be ahead of others.

@jojo0587 You are focusing too much in different profiles.
Workspace should be in different containers (cache and cookies differents) but the same profile (same bookmarks and stuffs of yor profile)... it is like Private Windows works without the Private part and in the same window in a different workspace.

Profiles is a whole different thing that most browser have but having 2 windows is a not ideal.

And Whatsapp was an example... it can be a news site, email, etc... any site that have login via cookies should be separetely between Workspaces to be useful.

That is how most people see Workspaces... and that is why it was a surprise when Opera released it without that feature.

Workspace School: you use your school credentials to logins on sites
Workspace Personal: you use your personal credentials to logins on sites
Workspace Work: you use your work credentials to logins on sites

All using the same profile with same bookmarks... just cookies and cache are separetelly between workspaces (just like Private Window do but without the private options enabled).

Nobody wants Workspaces with different profiles... nobody wants to have several profiles or create them.

I can't see how anybody can't see how useful is that it is how Workspace was supposed to work... it is a deal breaker feature... the Firefox thought of the right ideia with Containers but forget the organization part because it is dumb to have diferent containers per tab and Workspace fix that issue making perfect.

@jojo0587 You can see it in this own thread... only you is against it.
And again forget profiles... nobody wants a new profile in a Workspace.

Like I said the feature already exists in Opera with Private Window (same profile with different cookies and cache)... it just needs to be made into Workspace without the Private options enabled.

It is not something crazy... it just how people see Workspaces... how it is now I don't use at all.

If it is not possible or not something in the priority only Opera devs can say but that thread is about feature request, no? Why to be so admant against a feature request that others thinks to be useful? After all it can have flag to enable/disable it.

@leocg what that means? Opera has Tab Group and Workspace.
Tab Group is called Tab Island in Opera.
Workspace is not Tab Group... it is a entry new browser area (aka Workspace)... instead to have a new windows you can have different areas called workspace.

@burnout426 Arc Windows is bugged and has less features than the Mac one... the UI is worst on Windows too.

But the Workspace part works on Windows for these that wants to see how it is.

You can assign a different profile to any Workspace, and change it anytime you want... and you can change between Workspaces just like you do in Opera... it is ver snap without any delay at all.

In fact the Workspace is very similar to Opera... the difference is that you can use different profiles that is basically what we are asking to Opera add.

UI side Opera is way better than Arc... and that is even more evident in Windows.

@burnout426 thanks... I thought so.
Well the best should be an already setup option like ot has to Whatsapp, Telegram, etc... that way it should work without need workarounds but I think they will not do that.

I tried extensions but these only works in icon on title bar and I wanted something on sidepanel.

And I wanted to put the things I use together in the sidebar but seems impossible right now the Whatsapp is in the top part and the Outlook in the botton lol

I tried it and uninstalled.
C'mon I was using Opera on Android and when I switched to iOS I found out that bookmark and Opera Account integration doesn't exist.
There is no way to use the browser in that precarious state.

@leocg I think we will agree to disagree here... workspace is not tab groups and I don't believe Opera devs created it as tab groups (it makes no sense).
Plus you guys talking about profiles when Private Windows works with the same profile and have clean cookies/cache.

I guess only Opera devs knows what is possible or not... and imo it is a matter of time/work to implement the feature and priorities than the "impossible" or "have to use other profiles" excuses.
I had no ideia the community here (not the devs) where so against features requests lol

@wagnerfilho89: I will try that extension because what Opera is doing is bullshit.
I will probably migrate to another browser because these features they are removing are what made them good.

@leocg yes, but they are entrie different things... so I disagree that Workspace were suppose to be Tab Groups... that makes no sense.

How Private Windows works using the same profile?

@leocg that is not necessary true... it is a feature to clean data after exit in private windows... the developer can disable that if they want.

You guys are taking private window example too literal... devs needs just to develop Workspace to work like private widowns without clean up the cache/cookies on exit.

@leocg we will agree to disagree here.
You say that but it is utter useless without profiles.

And like I said before this is a place to ask for new features...
