![]() It can be a Google account or it can be a local account, both are treated the same. Do you mean signing in with different google accounts? > I didn't know chrome offer multiple profiles. This is before getting into problems Chrome shares with Firefox like not syncing local profiles or issues with the way things work on Android. Chrome avoids all of these by automatically managing the shortcuts (clearly named), providing clear in-browser always visible UI about multiple profiles (also clearly marked), and explaining to the user how to make/manage them in app. These are obviously answered problems for anyone on HN but not obvious problems for the majority of users that have never even installed an extension (even an adblocker). "just start with the -p flag" avoids the user accessibility issue with the technical answer repeated. wait what do you mean other programs can have opened Firefox and I have to reopen it with the right profile? I'm in the other profile now but the wrong stuff is there! (they didn't manually customize the secondary profile to be visually distinct). Modify a shortcut? Oh you mean all of them? Oh the Start Menu is customizable? Well I'm on a Mac. Yep, and that alone is enough for it to be too much a PITA to the average user.
