Profile switching (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

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

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
