That is sad. I need multiple profiles for my work and I cannot use Firefox because the profile support is awful. Creating and managing profiles as well as switching profiles is so intuitive in Chrome, it just works. In Firefox it's extremely user hostile. Hearing that Microsoft will also remove uBlock from Edge makes me angry, because that will make my work-life so much more annoying.
- captn3m0 2y agoBetter profile support is coming soon, already in Nightly. Edit: https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/try-out-firefox-profiles-in-nightly/m-p/84223 https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/try-out-firefox-p...
- ourmandave 2y agoI assume this means they've added AI to better tie together the profile you use for work and the one you use for sh*t posting. Working title: Copilot for Tracking.
- viraptor 2y agoAre containers not good enough to replace profiles for your use case? I've been juggling those like profiles and I'm very happy.

- tharos47 2y agoYou should use "Multi account containers" instead of profiles in firefox. It's like profiles in chrome/edge but it works by tab instead.
- zeeZ 2y agoIt doesn't allow for different extensions though. I need to use a full profile in order to use separate bitwarden accounts, for example.
- antifa 2y agoI like that Orion (safari based, Mac only) shows different icons in the dock. All chrome profiles show up as a single icon. I haven't checked Firefox, I've got away with just installing separate types (default, ESR, nightly).
- abdullahkhalids 2y agoI created shortcuts in my taskbar for launching firefox with each of my profiles. It works pretty well.
