Here’s a tip to make using Firefox profiles easy.

1. go to about:profiles and create a profile. Let’s call this one “better” because it has the Betterfox css added. (an example)
2. On Linux typing firefox in a terminal will launch the default profile. Typing firefox -p better will launch the “better” profile. If you’re on OS X or Windows just find out what the equivalent command would be to execute the launch.
3. Go to wherever you need to in your operating system to create custom keyboard shortcuts. For me that’s Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > Custom Shortcuts. Create a new shortcut with the following information.

Name: Firefox profile better

Command: firefox -p better

Keys: enter the keys you want to use

How to choose keys;

My desktop environment uses super(windows) + b to launch the default browser, which happens to be Firefox. So for me it makes sense to use something like super + shift + b for consistency, and easy to remember. If you have a profile with Arkenfox css it could be super + shift + a. Regardless, try for a mnemenic and consistent solution.

Now whenever you want to launch a new instance of a Firefox profile just tap the keys you assigned.

No public list, sorry. I’m willing to say that I already support many things on your list. And like you pointed out, many projects with software I use don’t have a way to support them financially, which frustrates me to no end.

My yearly spend is approximately €500, give or take a little. Fortunately, I can afford to do this. I hold no judgement for those who are not in a position to do. My only motivation for contributing financially is to ensure the free, functional, ad free, privacy preserving software I love continues to exist. It needs to exist especially for those who cannot afford to pay a corporation for proprietary software. A shout out to all the developers who adhere to FOSS principles. Each new year I make a list of the software I’ve mainlined and similar to the article I allot an amount to each one based on my usage. Many times it’s time-tested old-school tools, but we’re seeing a lot of new development with Rust apps, crates and TUIs. This year I added Matrix. Also EFF, despite not being directly impacted by that jurisdiction. They truly are holding back a giant wave with global repercussions. It’s not always easy to justify the time spent creating FOSS tools when there’s bills to pay, mouths to feed. Thank you - You know who you are.

Yep.

Agreed! What would be amazing though, is a manufacturer who could make a modern safe bare-bones vehicle that didn’t have the tech installed at all. If you want tech you could BYO.

It can’t be illegal because you agree to allow them when you purchase the new vehicle. It’s all there in the T&C and PP, which no one ever reads. Don’t like it? Don’t buy new cars. I won’t.
