From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I keep waiting for better profile management. Not saying it needs to mirror chrome exactly, but feature wise it falls short (at least how I would like to use it).
Please elaborate, I don't know what to use the profile features for
Basically you use it to have multiple browser instances with their own configuration(settings, extensions, tabs) for whatever reason. I use it to separate work and personal stuff.
