The only way to access it with `about:profiles`? It looks like a joke. How could users possibly find this? UPD. The more I look at this, the worse it gets. Hid

UPD. The more I look at this, the worse it gets. Hidden under a special URL, requires you to launch the default profile before you can switch to another profile (yes-yes, there are command-line hacks). It's more like a user data manager for devs than profiles for users. Even containers look better than these profiles.
- arp242 1y agoYou can use "firefox -ProfileManager". I didn't even know about about:profiles. There is some work on improving the UI: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-management https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-management Anyway, your claim was "Firefox has no profiles". That is not true.
- akazantsev 1y agoReally? Then you can claim that Chrome has supported "profiles" since its inception, with the `--user-data-dir` command-line switch. If something is not user-visible, it is as good as non-existent. Firefox has no profiles as far as a regular user is concerned.
- ReadCarlBarks 1y agoThe new profile manager has already been enabled for most users. If you don't see it in the main menu yet, type `about:config` into the address bar and toggle `browser.profiles.enabled`.
