    I’m talking about the browser user profiles, where your user data (bookmarks, passwords, extensions) is stored.

    Firefox puts them into profiles so that you can change between those sets, as if you’re a different user, without changing user accounts at the OS level.

    This isn’t about online accounts.

    Or have a shortcut that has something like this as its target:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" --ProfileManager --allow-downgrade -no-remote
    This just opens the profile manager every time. The only caveat is that you have to click “launch” every time as there’s no timeout. But I also do have an autohotkey script that does the timeout for me, pressing “enter” after 30s.




  • I see Twitter as a ship too big to maneuver. Then one day it got bought and a new captain comes aboard. He deliberately breaks the hull here and there to make the ship lighter and more agile, and also fired half of the hands on deck. The ship’s taking on water faster now. He also painted over her name. Despite all this, the majority of souls on board would rather sink with the ship than jump overboard.
