Hi. I wanted to try your script. I installed it via pip, but when I try to scrape something, the moment I enter my password I get the following error: "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible".

A quick google search appears to indicate that the root of the issue is that Firefox in Ubuntu is installed as a snap package (instead of a .deb file), which does not use the default profile path. In my case I use Kubuntu 20.04 LTS

Is there any workaround? Thanks in advance.
