i just got a new laptop and it came with firefox installed on it, but i couldn't really figure out its features. on chrome i like having different profiles with their own histories, bookmarks, appearances, accounts/passwords, etc.. I couldn't work that out in firefox.
I've seen lots of people say it's an easy switch, but my ass could not do it
All you need should just be in
about:profiles
, but it's definitely not as intuitive as on Chrome unfortunately yeahOk sweet, I’ll give it another go tonight with that tip. Tyvm
Would containers work for you? They don't separate bookmarks, but everything else would work like a profile. It says you need an addon but I'm pretty sure you don't anymore because I don't have it.
I’ll check out containers too, ty!
