by Franz Schneider, 8 years ago01/27/2019: Annnnnd STILL waiting to just be able to reorder my groups in the groups menu. Astonishing that this is still not a thing.

08/20/2018: I have downgraded my review to one star, not because this extension is THAT bad but because of lack of attention to the add-on–especially as one of Mozilla's own add-ons. It is now almost September of 2018. Quantum has been out for how long now? And we STILL cannot do the simplest things like SORT GROUPS. Groups are forever doomed to stay where they are in your groups list when you add them. My groups are in such a FRUSTRATING, illogical order because I cannot move them around or sort them. Zero of the issues below have been touched either. Come on, Mozilla. Don't die on us again. If you're going to take away a bunch of developer functionality, replace it already on the new platform.
To add to the list:
- Please change add-on so that when a tab is assigned to a group that is hidden, the entire group does not unhide and load every single tab in that group. Need the option to keep the tab hidden.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:
This add-on has been a so-so substitute for TabGroups, but certainly not a replacement. Many months later and we still do not have simple things such as:
- tab hiding,
- a way to sort groups in the group-selection menu,
- a way to move an open tab not assigned a group to a group,
- a way to move a tab from one group to another,
- and very few group colors and icons for groups to choose from for differentiation.
Will we see a useful update to this add-on soon? It has potential but is very inefficient in its current state.

- Rated 4 out of 5by anarchy1923, 2 days agoReally nice to have isolation per container, and I've found great utility for it, especially when I was fed up with using Google account switcher for switching between different google accounts of mine.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Mike, 7 days agoWorks well. Once you've got it set up it's unobtrusive and effective ; it's easy to set up

- Rated 5 out of 5by Martin, 8 days agoVery cool, this should be built in to Firefox (IMHO) but I can imagine some of the cookie following community might freak out if everyone could put this to use for their own needs. Bravo and Brava!
- Rated 1 out of 5by Domenico, 8 days agoBella l'idea ma assolutamente impossibile da usare perchè in pratica danneggia il corretto funzionamento di quasi tutte le altre estensioni e dei siti che richiedo l'accesso attivo!
- Rated 5 out of 5by PlaneCrazy1999, 9 days agoOne of the coolest things ever and I never would have thought of it. I'm no programmer but after needing to re-login to everything once I assigned containers, my observation is each container is essentially a separate instance of the browser, each container with its own set of cookies. This is a genius way to split up cookies based on how sensitive the info is, and it somehow manages to run as if I didn't install an addon that does multi-process instances in one window. I've been using Firefox ever since I started to understand cybersecurity from wiki dives and debit card fraud in high school and would just like to say this is probably the most customizable, resource-efficient/multithreaded/fast and private browser there is. That's why I have my beta studies turned on now; I want to contribute. Thank you and keep up the great work over there!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Kemar Christie, 11 days agoThis works flawlessly, no issues here. Would love to see more icons though so i can have more containers that arent repeating icons. Let us use emojis instead or add our own icon. Also huge thing to add. make the containers use seperate extensions. This would then replicate the profliels feature but make it all unified from one profile.

- Rated 5 out of 5by igor, 13 days agoIt simplifies managing multiple logins on the same site and significantly enhances privacy by preventing cross-site tracking.Highly recommended for taking control of your online footprint.
