shortcut for different profiles

[80]

i have switched from chrome since past 1 month and firefox is just better. the only thing i did not find easy is the option for having multiple profiles to be used at ease, could be better if there was one to easily access seperate profiles for work and home

Different Accounts

I’d love to see a feature in Firefox that makes switching between different accounts easier. Like a lot of people, I juggle several online identities—personal, work, school—and having a quick way to switch profiles within the browser would make a huge difference. If each profile could keep its own history, bookmarks, google account, and extensions, it would really streamline things and help keep everything organized without needing multiple windows or complicated workarounds. I think it could be a great way for Firefox to make life easier for people who need flexibility online. It could work by just clicking on the user icon and selecting a different account in the dropdown menu.

I think they have done a lot of work towards profiles, as in the last nightly the profiles tab in the application menu has returned and a workflow has been made to create a new profile (which also works). It is possible to edit them. This looks promising!

@VeganFoxThat sounds great, cant wait to see it in main.

It would be even better if this could become a taskbar button rather than being hidden away in the hamburger menu. Maybe it can be integrated with the Account button, like how Chrome and Edge work.

adding my vote for this feature. makes it really hard to switch from chrome.

The lack of this feature is the thing that's keeping me away from Firefox and on Chrome instead
