Hey Mattias,

QQ: what was the reason behind recommending using an incognito window over browser profiles?

I personally found the latter much more useful whilst juggling contexts between work, personal, and study.

For anyone curious on this, please feel free to check out the below for info on how to do this:

Firefox: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-remove-switch-firefox-profiles

It’s up to you and your convenience :). For me the only reason to use Incognito (Chrome), Private Browsing (Firefox) or InPrivate (Edge) is to negate the "caching effect".

And yet thumb up for the profiles, as I also use that a lot 😀
