Swappable bookmarks toolbar sets

Firefox Sync configuration

I have extensive bookmark collections organized under my bookmarks toolbar. I use different bookmark sets at home and work. I need them remain separate but would like them to be backed up and synced. For example, if I'm at home, I want to be able to toggle over to my WORK bookmarks with all the latest updates. Basically, I need distinct bookmark identities but don't care about keeping other work/home stuff isolated.

I tried making home and work profiles, but syncing them to my Mozilla account merged the bookmarks which was a mess that took a long time to straighten out.

Can 2 profiles be synced to the same Mozilla account without merging bookmarks toolbars? If I have to create a separate Mozilla account for each profile, that kind of defeats the purpose.

I've looked at the available docs but can't see a fix. Can someone advise how I can either:

A) Sync multiple profiles (with bookmarks) to my Mozilla account without merging the bookmarks toolbars B) Find another solution to let me toggle bookmark sets.

It's exactly like you've investigated so far. Folks use separate accounts to sync separate profiles most of the time. (Maybe someone has a better hack for that, I'm not aware of anything.)

thanks jbr, good to confirm I'm not missing some obvious way to do this. I'll set up some additional accounts for the contexts I want to keep separate. Maybe somebody will come up with a clever way to hot-swap bookmarks using a single profile but parallel accounts will work for now.
