i just found out that firefox finally made profiles easy to use - a first class feature like chrome.

I found out from this techlore video https://youtu.be/dwFSytu_JUw

and even better then chrome, in macos dock bar, each active profile has its own icon

Chrome has had profiles for a long long time, easy to segment accounts/jobs for better isolation (extensions, etc).

Firefox has always had profiles hidden, they were just a super pain in the butt to the point where it wasn't really usable.

Better isolation is great!

Thank you for the response! Am sorry, but proof for what?
The profile selector is empty because I used a temporary Kubuntu environment at https://distrosea.com/ for the screenshot, since I am currently on-the-go.

Holy smokes! 25 profiles! That's a profile for almost all possible 25 identities for the whole month of a spy job!
