I’m on v2.0.0.beta5 +193 and the mini profiler is visible on my admin account.  
Am I supposed to see it? Is it a bug? How to disable it permanently?

I’ve already asked about this in another topic, but my posts have been deleted without explanation.

There are a zillion topics about mini profiler. Only you see it. It’s a feature.

The other topics say it supposed to be visible only to developers, not to regular admins.

Are you self-hosted? If not, I don’t know. If you are:

```plaintext
cd /var/discourse
grep DEV containers/app.yml 

```

thanks @pfaffman. This was very helpful. I changed the developer’s email in app.yml and now the mini profiler is off for my admin account.
