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!

    Favorites are migrated by the welcome wizard.

    Password and credit cards you should migrate them to bitwarden free as it’s more secure and cross platform

    Auto fill on Firefox works much much better than chromium browsers (that I had to keep it disabled because it always messed up shipping addresses)

      I personally don’t store my CC info in my browser any form. This does two things for me:

      1. Reduces impulse purchases - that extra step of finding my CC is often enough for me to reconsider
      2. Limits fraud from a compromised account to just my accounts

      But if I did, I would prefer to store it in Bitwarden than my browser.

      Autofill doesn’t work for me at all on Firefox in Czech language sites. It only works if I’m filling the exact same form on the exact same site twice, otherwise it won’t recognize the common fields like name, address, telephone (in czech of couse).

      Any idea how to fix this?
