People could just use another browser profile, with it's own set of bookmarks and uBlock in strict mode... Never saw much sense in "incognito" mode.
Why don't we replace the low effort open incogento mode with a more convoluted creating of a browser profile and installation and configuration of an app. You're full of the best ideas.
Copy paste the profile and done. And it's more incognito than "incognito" mode.
Does anybody use incognito for anything more than stopping pornhub show up when you press p in the address bar?
I use an entirely different browser (vivaldi), that way I can have all the logins and bookmarks and cookies I want and not have to worry about it.
