    How to switch multiple Github accounts more easily in one browser?

    This extension works for most sites, the principle of it seems to be isolating cookies.

    Unfortunately, somehow this extension doesn't work well on github. Although the switch on github seems to work at first glance, every time I do something, like delete or create a new repository, a pop-up error comes saying "What‽
    Please try again. If the error continues, try disabling all browser extensions."

    I don't know (and tbh have no energy in delving into as well) what the technical reasons are, just looking for a simple, straightforward solution ehh....

    Is there an extension that allows browser users to switch between multiple github accounts with one click, instead of having to logout one and back in to another EACH time (which is annoying)?

    btw, in case someone curious, multiple accounts here are not used for malicious purposes such as spamming, just for privacy and anti social engineering, yo know, different accounts for different scenarios and roles etc.

    I would try my luck with other "cookie swap" extensions. Maybe make a separate browser profile for each account... not the epitome of comfort and usability, but on Chrome at least, switching profiles is easy and quick. Hopefully someone else can recommend something more specific.

    Yep I use profile switching on firefox. Shortcut for every profile and I'm good to go.
