How safe is it to use multiple profiles in the same firefox version? And multiple profiles in different firefox version (stable and beta)?

Dear Mozilla team, I'd like to set up 2 different profiles: one for email, banking and other sensitive stuff and the other for general web surfing. Honestly, so far I've used Firefox for the first job and Chrome for the second one. Now I would like to try to set-up 2 profiles in Firefox to use it for both purposes While I used to use 2 different browsers before, now I would use the same browser, which can access both profiles. I'm afraid that if I browse with my hobby profile, a possible threat could easily access or compromise the data of the second profile. Is the solution of using 2 different browsers actually more secure? What if I use the stable version together with the beta version of Firefox instead? I would like clarification on this. Thanks

As long as you keep the two profiles fully separated and not use Sync then nothing should go wrong. Best is to create two desktop shortcuts, one for starting Firefox with this profile to avoid confusion. You can also consider to use a lightweight theme in case you have both profiles open at the same time.

You can also look at containers to keep data like cookies separate.
