Is there a simple app that can transfer everything easily? Like my favorites, browsing history and everything, including autofill setting and whatnot? I really just don’t want to redo everything and essentially start fresh.
Edit*
Thank you everyone! I’ve used chrome for so long and the last time I tried fire fox over 13 years ago it didn’t auto transfer anything, so I had no idea. And I will look into a 3rd party for password storage.
I’m not super savy with some things, so I don’t really know what you mean by “self hosting” but I guess I’ll look into that too.
Again thanks! Looks like I will make the switch!
As said previously, strongly strongly recommend not using browsers to store passwords and paiement cards. Bitwarden and keepass are well known good options, but if you trust Proton you should try their new password manager Proton Pass which has a free tier (not affiliated to them) For the moment I still have an active license on 1password so haven’t switched over yet
People keep repeating this. But I’ve never really heard s good reason for why a separate password manager is any more secure.
Firefox’s saved passwords are not encrypted and just copying your user profile to another computer will allow someone else to use your credentials.
If you use Chrome, do you really want Google knowing your logins?
Firefox supports a master password to encrypt them with
But by default it’s not encrypted and nobody ever changes the default settings
