I've given it a decent shot - but it still has very average profile support, which I use daily. In Chrome, it's easy to see what profile I'm using (top right corner of the window), and very easy to switch.
In Firefox, you need to go to about:profiles to even see what profile you're currently using.
- spacehunt 9y agoWould containers work better for your use case?
- ccakes 9y agoCheck out Containers - it goes a long way towards solving this problem. I also used to rely heavily on Chrome profiles https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Contextual_Identity_Project/Containers https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Contextual_Identity_Projec...
- ojame 9y agoContainers seem like a compromise that I can live with to give FF57 a better shot. They share history/bookmarks, which I'm not a fan of. I prefer my work profiles not to have reddit/hacker news etc. in the auto fill address bar.
- jraph 9y agoMaybe you could use a different theme for each profile, or put different buttons or buttons in different order in the toolbar? Maybe there could be an extension that shows the name of the current profile and/or an image/text chosen by the user in the toolbar or the tab bar? The extension would have to be installed in each profile, but this is to be done only once. Please still my idea, whether you are a Firefox or an addon developer!
