Indeed the launcher must be copied into ~/.local/share/applications.

I'm not sure whether I need to/should copy the solution from there into here (should I? comments on that?), so I'll just refer to it (solution by pomsky) and gave an abstract repetition of that solution plus additional comments. Key is the solution provided in the Stackoverflow entry on duplicate icons in the navigation.

Anyway I had a very similar problem (I had such a link in the favorites, which opened a new icon), and it did at the end work for me! I believe that I have the solution, though it might require some back-and-forth until it actually works. I've also tried moving the launchers from ~/.local/share/applications to /usr/share/applications but again no change. I've tried adding the following to top block but no change: StartupWMClass=s3rvantfox Clicking on a 2nd profile opens another window with indicator also by that default icon even though the 2nd window is using the 2nd profile. However since upgrading to 21.04 when I click one of these launchers the default Firefox icon is added to the dock for the newly opened window with running indicator by that icon. In Ubuntu 20.04 this has worked fine keeping the various profile window indicators grouped on their respective launcher icons as expected.
