One thing that I wonder is if I can convert my old
firefox -Pprofiles into this new kind of profiles, and have them all be synced by firefox with a single account instead of recreating them on all my devices. On the filesystem they seem to be the same, just not in the same place.Their blog implied you would need to create a separate sync account for each profile. It'd obviously be better if you could choose which profiles are linked to which account, in addition to local only.
i guess you’d need to expose both options: the ability to sync some profiles to some accounts and others to another… for example, i probably wouldn’t want my personal profile to sync to my work devices but id want my work profiles to sync between each other and be accessible from some of my home devices
