I have one thing keeping me from moving back to Firefox. I use Chrome profiles extensively to separate my various client access sessions that I need to do my job. So I need a solution in Firefox that allows me to have separate profiles with separate sessions. I’ve tried Firefox profiles but those are so much clunkier to setup and switch between. Also there’s no way I’ve found to get the Firefox profiles to be in separate color-coded windows like Chrome does so I have to look through all my open windows to find the one for the specific client I’m working with.
If someone can solve this I’ll switch back to Firefox immediately.
Always launches with the profile selector. Then install a profile switcher extension. Done.
Unfortuntaley 1) it doesn’t really come out of the box and 2) the extension must be installed on every single profile. Not the most obvious or user friendly.
I am using this extension https://github.com/null-dev/firefox-profile-switcher it seems to work pretty well, I just switched back to firefox after a decade with chrome, now that they dont mind being evil I am not going to keep using their products.

It seems something similar to Firefox Containers

I just launch Firefox with this option:
