With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

My biggest issue with FF is the lack of the ability to switch accounts easily. In Chrome I have a work account, a home account, and a side hustle account. Each has their own bookmarks, themes, passwords, and history.

I have tried using FF and the few workarounds to match this feature, but so far it has none worked as smoothly as chromes 2 button clicks to switch accounts.

You can always use firefox's profiles to manage different profiles and the "profile switcher for Firefox" extension. 2 clicks to change profile that way.
