I actually like the current implementation. I literally use it everyday.

I can define the location of the profile. I can migrate a profile from a different machine (with a different OS nonetheless) and it works.

What would you like to see changed?

For starters, don't hide it away like it is some obscure function of the browser, it should be part of the main menu. You either have to type something into your address bar, or you have to start the browser with a specific command, which opens the actual profile manager that has like 0 functionality.

Have you tried profiles in Arc? They're so seamless it barely feels like changing anything, but different enough you know you have.

Just saw Alfred for Mac had an Arc integration and checked the Arc website out for the first time.

Looks beautiful:

Per Wiki: I see it's using the Blink engine + V8 (WebKit on iOS), and is a new browser released April 2022. Will try it out though prefer to keep Firefox as my main browser instead of one that uses the same engines as Chrome (fighting for the future of the open web and all).

Yeah, same. The profiles and tab groups are all I really want to be in Firefox and I'll be so happy. I hope the new profiles are similar.
