Firefox is the only major browser not backed by a billionaire and our independence shapes everything we build. This independence allows us to prioritize bu
with every fucking install on every machine. for years.
Multiplied by all the other annoyances you have to turn off, via either gui or about:config, each and every time. I feel you.
I hop machines fairly frequently, use multiple browsing profiles, and often create discardable profiles, so I eventually just went ahead and spent some time tracing all the about:config equivalents of the settings that I typically change every time and then put them in a user.js file that I can just drop into my profile directory.
…which is pretty smart.
but many of my installs unfortunately include osx and even still windows. not for me, but but for work and ppl that want alternatives. and i just dont have the time for these shenanigans every time. and as much as i hate it to say: a chrome install feels cleaner.
so for myself i rsync my ffprofile folder to a remote storage. but i will consider your method now. thanks.
