by Firefox user 15119207, 5 years agoGood enough sometimes, but often opens subdomains in new tabs even though I changed settings to do otherwise. Open in X container context menu option for Multi-Account Containers is broken, and I need to disable the addon everytime I want to add a new domain to a container.
Developer response
posted 5 years agoTo reproduce the subdomains issue I'd need some steps to reproduce (ideally in an GitHub issue: https://github.com/stoically/temporary-containers/issues). Most of the time the issue comes from the fact that other domains are in-between when the redirect happens, which then causes the isolation.
"Open in New Container Tab" in combination with MAC isolation not working is expected behavior since the isolation will overwrite it (See: https://github.com/stoically/temporary-containers/issues/170). Alternatives to disabling the Add-on is globally toggling isolation, using the Alt+i shortcut (needs to be enabled in the advanced preferences under "Keyboard shortcuts") or the "crossed circle icon" in the toolbar popup (needs to be enabled in the general preferences).

- Rated 5 out of 5by adamhybel, 3 months agoTemporary Containers is a fundamental privacy enhancement for Firefox, automatically isolating your browsing activity to minimize tracking.
- Automatic Isolation: Opens websites, tabs, or clicks in new, disposable containers by default.
- Reduces Tracking: Significantly limits cross-site tracking by preventing cookies and site data from following you across different websites or sessions.
- Effortless Cleanup: Once the last tab in a temporary container is closed, the container and all its stored data (cookies, local storage) are automatically deleted, leaving minimal trace.
- Simple & Automatic: Installs and works seamlessly in the background. Excellent privacy protection right away with smart defaults, yet offers configuration for specific needs.
- Trustworthy & Open Source: Free, open-source, and dedicated to enhancing user privacy without compromises.
That's it! Keep it enabled for a significantly more private browsing experience. Temporary Containers provides a powerful layer of compartmentalization with virtually no user effort required. A huge thank you to the developer(s) for creating and maintaining this essential privacy tool. Highly recommend. - Rated 5 out of 5by Ricky, 4 months agoworks very well when i have auto fill info or when i just want to have history without persistent cookies

- Rated 5 out of 5by Tucker, a year agoWorks great! It'd be cool if there was a shortcut to convert temporary containers into permanent ones for when you create a new account that you want in a separate container.

- Rated 3 out of 5by eriador, a year agoI love this addon and have been using it for 5 years now, but recently I noticed a weird issue: when I open a few links from my bookmarks in rapid succession, the tabs get stuck and I can't switch tabs anymore or do anything else. It doesn't happen when this addon is disabled.
