How can I login to google with a single click, when I wipe all cookies and use a vpn ? (lemmy.ml)

The 12 step 2 factor login process 4 times a day really pisses me off. ESPECIALLY that last screen where you are logged in but it makes you press another NEXT as punishment for not staying logged in all the time.

Really super annoying how they are using such manipulative behaviour to punish those who protect their privacy

I don't really understand what you're asking for, but maybe you'd benefit from Firefox's multi-account containers extension (domains can have their cookies isolated). Or from a more rigorous usage of the Firefox profiles features (type about:profiles in the address bar) and create a dedicated google profile, a dedicated vpn profile, and leave a regular personal profile. You can theme them so they look distinct when you have them open.

I used to use both. Firefox profile switcher is currently broken The problem is that cookie auto delete is very all-or-nothing. No per container settings. No way to choose to keep only the session cookies only for certain websites in certain containers.
