Is your suggested feature related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm always frustrated by how long it takes to get multiple instances running with each of them playing as different accounts. Start up an instance, switch account, wait a bit because otherwise it will start the instance with the previous account still, then press play, repeat.
Why do I do this in the first place? I live stream cool ice boat races with 8 accounts as my "production crew" and getting all of the 8 instances with correct accounts running takes WAY to much time.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add an option in the instance settings to bind a specific account to that instance. When launching the instance, Modrinth would automatically use the assigned account without needing to manually switch users each time.
Example:
In the instance settings panel, add a dropdown like:
Account: [MainAccount123 ▼]
If left as “Default,” it uses the currently selected account. Otherwise, it always launches with the chosen one.

I think this is out of scope for what we're doing with Modrinth App, so i'm gonna close it. The complexity this would add doesn't seem like it is worth the rather niche use case this enables
