I was in a somehow similar scenario a few years ago and ended up using profiles.
I created and configured the "perfect" profile on my laptop and made a copy of it on my flash drive. Then whenever I needed to work on a new machine, all I had to was to copy the profile directory from my flash drive.
The details may have changed since then, but I think the idea is still applicable. HTH
This might be a good option for me. Do you have to log on to your account to install the profile or can do without?
Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do it: https://www.bahmanm.com/2023/07/firefox-profiles-quickly-replicate-your-settings.html
Cool! Thanks a lot! I'll try this out later.
Hang on...I'm testing and writing the procedure on my blog. I will post back here as soon as I'm done.
What I do is to use sync but also use a master password so that the important things like passwords aren't accessible without it.
You can also self host your own sync server (even works on iOS)
