Unfortunately, containers only isolate cookies and session data. It doesn't isolate history, bookmarks, saved logins, etc akin to Chrome's profiles. A major use of this is separating work and personal browsing.

Firefox technically has profiles as well (via about:profiles), but there's no profile switcher separate from an internal page.
