This just isn't what I want. In Chrome I have two separate profiles: work, and home. This lets me have work and home specific history, extensions, and settings.

This just isn't what I want. In Chrome I have two separate profiles: work, and home. This lets me have work and home specific history, extensions, and settings. Opening a new tab in one doesn't bleed into the other. This is what I want. It's literally the only thing keeping me in Chrome these days.
Firefox used to have something like this in the past, but it's either buried deep inside some obscure setting or has been ripped out. It's a damn shame.

- jdalgetty 9y agoAs soon as this is implemented directly into Firefox and easily accessible, I'll ditch chrome for good. I rely too much on separate profiles to give this feature up.
- bwat49 9y agoIt's not quite as elegant as chrome, but you can go to about:profiles to manage profiles from within firefox. It allows you to create/delete profiles and launch a given profile in a new window.

- 482794793792894 9y agoI always find it's worth pointing out that you can also bookmark the about:profiles-page and stick that into the bookmarks-bar. Or if you don't use the bookmarks-bar, you can also go into Customize and drag the Bookmark-Items-element into the Navbar and then put it there.
