Can I log in to my Google account though, in the actual browser? Firefox is fantastic,l and those features are amazing, but I keep all my browsing, bookmarks, and so on in one place, my Google account.
I need to be able to look something up on my pc or tablet etc which all run chrome, and be able to find that quickly on my phone by typing into the address bar, etc.
I don't usually care much about integrations but this one is too convenient to give up.
And I suppose, thinking about it, it would have to support multiple profiles too, because I have my personal Google account profile in Chrome, then my work Google profile, etc. Different sets of bookmarks and settings and so on for the different needs.
Firefox has its own syncing system via a Firefox account that'll sync your bookmarks, open tabs, history, logins, etc..
Firefox on desktop does support multiple profiles, but they are nowhere near as convenient as Chrome's which is just a few clicks.
No, you won't get Google profile sync built into Firefox. They have their own Firefox profile sync.
