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

14 pages of support and requests and begging for the past 3 years.

Please firefox. please. We just need a comprehensive profile management support. We need to be able to attach workspaces to a specific profile. We need to be able to create custom desktop icons to open different profiles. we need to be able to open links in the last touched profile instead of the default browsers default profile. PLEASE. It's time.

I have really tried to use Firefox because Google Chrome does not work very well with graphics acceleration activated (lots of micro lag when using Fedora Linux). Besides scrolling is way more smooth with Firefox compared to Google Chrome. But the lack of a good and reasonable way to switch between profiles such as personal and work and Progressive Web Apps makes it basically impossible for me to make Firefox my default browser. Just very sad because I like Firefox otherwise very well.

Let's hope this comes to fruition, baby. From all college students ❣️

2025 here. Please let there be a shortcut or some kind of easy profile switch. I would absolutely love to switch between work and private profiles effortlessly.

All we really need at minimum is a way to switch between profiles from any website in the toolbar. It doesn't need to be incredibly comprehensive.

More comprehensive features could come in later updates. Right now the inability to switch profiles from the toolbar or settings menu makes it incredibly inconvenient.

@77martians @fire900s @Xol @Ere @80 @Hello there!

I know it sucks but don't sweet it, i definitely wont use any other browser than Mozilla so i will suggest you all to do as me, use a different version/profile ej.

Profile A: Firefox | Profile B: Nightly | Profile C: Developer | Profile 😧 Focus | Profile E: WaterFox | Profile F: LibreFox

i spoke with Laura Chambers, CEO of Mozilla just before Christmas who has told me this regarding Profiles and Switching.

"We are just working through our 2025 roadmap as we speak, and I know the teams are testing out profiles in 2025. I hear you - it's an important feature.

We also have just hired a new head of Firefox, and I forwarded your message to him. He's excited to have the team engage more on forums and chats ... we are putting some extra resources and priorities on that in the new year also."

So here's hoping in the very near future we will have out profiles!

"working though our 2025 roadmap..."

How is Profiles Switching not at the top of the list of the Firefox road map?
