    There is a profile GUI but it’s true that it isn’t integrated into Firefox. You have to start it with firefox -ProfileManager. On Windows I recall it used to add a start menu entry for it but not on Linux.

      Firefox Flatpak, RPM, and Windows have this entry. firefox -p is enough and works cross platform.

      But it is no button so people dont think it exists. I heard tech people say “Chromes profiles are better than Firefox containers” as they literally didnt know this core feature.

      Thunderbird has profiles too, Element web also. Both have no GUI at all.
