How to make desktop icons like chrome?
That's an old tutorial, the pref its asking you to toggle doesn't exist in the latest Nightly anymore. Your best bet is to use an extension but if that doesn't work, then you're screwed. Mozilla isn't continuing development of this feature.

Do firefox have something like --app switch in chrome?
Are you referring to PWA? Unfortunately, Firefox does not yet support it; however, you can use this for the feature. The exension isn't great and buggy, but it gets the job done.
- Is it just me or does someone else desires desktop PWA's like Microsoft Edge or Brave or whatever?

Ask HN: Why is ChatGPT using 100% of my CPU?
I've noticed this too. 100% CPU usage, laptop temperature skyrockets and fans kick on whenever I'm on the ChatGPT website.
I believe I've found a solution. I'm on Linux Mint, I'm using Firefox. If I export chatGPT to a web app using Linux Mint's webapp-manager, the problem goes away. What's strange here is that this should be using same profile and version of Firefox as my actual browser. Maybe it's an extension causing an issue, but I only have ublock origin, tampermonkey, firefox translation which is an official addon, and multi-account container which is also an official addon.

Using extra Firefox profiles to make my life better
Surprised no one mentioned Linux Mint's Webapp Manager:
https://github.com/linuxmint/webapp-manager
Should be in more distros. Allows some basic tweaking of profiles and supports more than just Firefox (unfortunately not qutebrowser, though).

Is there a way to make PWAs to display their separate icon in the GNOME dock?
This is something that I really struggled with some time ago, but I finally managed to solve. Try out WebApp Manager, it's a fork of ICE, a previous version which also worked. It takes care of everything, even the WM_CLASS attribute needed to associate different windows of each PWA together but separated from the browser window. This completely changed the way I use my PC, nowadays I have more PWAs opened that desktop programs.

Any method to install websites as apps like in chromium based browsers?
Webapps are basically just shortcuts that launch the browser with no navigation bar - so it's possible to create them with something like https://github.com/linuxmint/webapp-manager
