Mullvad Browser lets you reset the finger print with a click of button. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Pantherina@feddit.de [S] 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) No that clears browser data, the fingerprint is very complex. If you mean cookies, Librewolf and Firefox can delete all but you can add exceptions where you want to stay logged in. Very handy, also not there in private browsing. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] jjlinux@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) For me its way easier to use a different browser for each use case. Librewolf for something, Mullvad for something else, also Brave, also Vivaldi. 4 different browsers are making my life seriously easy. Why would I stick to 1 browser with many profiles? If something breaks in that one browser (which happens quite often) all I have to do is fire up a different one and try again. Different people different use cases, different streamlines. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Pantherina@feddit.de [S] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) If your browser breaks I hope another profile is not broken? Running 4 browsers at a time is seriously problematic for RAM, attack surface, updates etc. I will do a post on introducing firefox profiles (as they are hidden away) and GUI integration into desktops permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] jjlinux@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Cool.
