I recently switched from brave(flatpack) to firefox(rpm) on fedora 38 running wayland
Is there a better way to switch between different profiles other than going to about:profiles
and selecting the profile there
Create Firefox launchers
Launch the Firefox profile manager:
$ firefox -ProfileManager
Launch a specific profile:
$ firefox -P "ProfileName"
Removed by mod
I had no idea you could do that via
about:config
😅 I would always either disable “Use the selected profile …” or launch it withfirefox -P --no-remote
as suggested.FYI after years of having several profiles for different activities, I settled down on Multi-account containers and have been quite happy with it. I even wrote a little blogpost about my experience sometime ago - you might find it useful.
Sorry i made a typo in the question,i go to
about:profiles

It doesn’t work the same way as Chrome, as a warning though. If you open links from other applications, it will only open in the first instance of Firefox.
Also the profile manager can be used with a shortcut: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-remove-switch-firefox-profiles#w_start-the-profile-manager-when-firefox-is-closed
You can use Profile Switcher for Firefox extension
