Do not update if you use 'Profile Switcher for Firefox'
Firefox doesn't control whatever this third-party program does. This issue has to be reported directly to its developer.
- Firefox must prioritize in-built Tab Groups above everything else if it wants to capitalize on the Chrome-MV3 chaos.

If I create a copy of an App in the Apps folder such that 2 apps can run side by side(Firefox, Firefox copy), will I get conflicting preferences files etc?
Try this community profile switcher. git link . Basically Firefox has folders for different profiles, you can check about:profiles to know the location of these folders.

Is there a way to disguise your device info while browsing the web?
I don't know about Chrome based browsers but if you are using Firefox you can try user.js from arkenfox [link] or from pyllyukko [link] (I personally recommend the first one because they have a great wiki), you just put the script to your Firefox profile directory and it will spoof your screen resolution, link referrer, user agent, etc. (Remember to manually edit the file to suit your preferences, otherwise it may delete your history and cookies!). Also you can try User-Agent Switcher and Manager [Chrome] [Firefox] it is open source and lets you change your user agent to whatever you want. You can view your browser information on this website: https://deviceinfo.me, IMO this is a great website for identifying your browser's privacy issues.

Is there any recent user.js you'd recommend for Firefox?
I've been using the user.js script based on https://github.com/pyllyukko/user.js/tree/relaxed for a few years now, but today I noticed that it hasn't been updated for quite a while.

A distro based on Ubuntu that also is good for privacy
If you're that worried about privacy you should probably change your Firefox to one of these templates.

I guess it isn't the worst thing out there
Already tried it. Pretty nice but I prefer hardening Firefox on my own (which just means copying and pasting this user.js accordingly and applying some extensions )
What are some alternatives?

brave-browser - Brave browser for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows.
