I get it, I didn't read up before I acted, but seriously?

"Starting with Firefox version 67 each Firefox installation requires a separate profile."

Then I went to uninstall the new version of Firefox so I could stay with the old. It uninstalled the old version. Now I have a version of Firefox with no uninstall option that won't talk to my old profile. I found options for this, but really? Is firefox becoming a shit hole now? Have I just noticed that it already was a shit hole?

Pissed, thinking of going over the Edge...

    Jebus! It is even harder to find an offline installer for Chrome on Windows. Oh, you are running linux, you can ONLY download the linux version. Fuck you too Google! ;-)

    Yes, I found the enterprise link. Still a pain.

    Just found a cool thing!

    "about:profiles"

    It lets you play with profiles inside of Firefox! That is kinda neat.

    Firefox has been going down the drain for some time now. You can cause memory leaks just by fiddling with a color picker while using the inspect element feature.

    Lesson Learned: Do NOT use the short 300KB installer to install Firefox. Find and download the offline installer. Also force it to install where you want it. Once I did this it found my old profile and used it. I hate the web installers...
