Firefox Multi-Account Containers by Firefox

by aba, 4 months agoA good idea but completely unfinished.
Sync to a new browser always merges the default configuration without asking. The Sync does not sync the 'limit to designated sites' option, so you have to manually apply that to all the categories (while you clean out the merged in default configuration).
Management of the categories is woefully sub-par; how is there no way to manually add domains or wildcard domains to a category? Try keeping a service like Google in a 'limited' category and watch the SSO explode every time you go to maps dot google dot com because the browser doesn't stay on the auth redirect long enough to add it to the container though the UI.
It also breaks the firefox profiler, as the profiler can't load profiles from outside the category.
None of this bothered me when this feature was new, but it's been years. I wish I could recommend this and use it in earnest.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Saris, 4 days agoUseful, but so many things to close asking to use a VPN, the "manage site list" option also doesn't work, just shows a blank window. It feels a bit unfinished like it's a beta version.

- Rated 5 out of 5by adamhybel, 8 days agoFirefox Multi-Account Containers is an essential extension from Mozilla that revolutionizes how you manage multiple online identities and enhances your privacy within a single browser window.
- Enhanced Privacy: Keep your work, personal, banking, and shopping activities separate. Cookies and site data are isolated within each "container," significantly limiting cross-site tracking and keeping your identities distinct.
- Effortless Organization: Log into multiple accounts on the same website simultaneously without conflict. Manage personal and work emails, or different social media profiles, side-by-side without needing separate browsers or private windows.
- Intuitive Control: Easily assign websites to specific containers. Once set up, sites automatically open in their designated container, keeping your browsing neatly compartmentalized with minimal effort.
- Trustworthy & Integrated: Developed directly by Mozilla, it's free, open-source, and seamlessly integrates with the Firefox browser, ensuring reliability and adherence to privacy principles.
- Clean Browsing: Stop juggling multiple browser profiles or constantly logging in and out. Containers provide a streamlined and efficient way to manage your diverse online life.
That's it! Install it, assign your key sites to containers, and experience a much more organized and private web. Firefox Multi-Account Containers is a fantastic tool for anyone managing multiple online personas. Huge thanks to the Mozilla team for creating and maintaining this invaluable utility. Highly recommended! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18955579, 9 days ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Sylvain, 9 days agoMulti-Account Containers is very great, nice job!
Especially for sysadmin checking permissions or multi-account privileges, keeping admin account and normal user-level privileges when one private tab is not enough.
I recommend! - Rated 5 out of 5by axolotl, 10 days agoottimo, molto utile ed intuitivo, finalmente posso accedere a più account contemporaneamente nello stesso browser con molta facilità e permette di dividere lavoro e vita privata con un click

- Rated 5 out of 5by YHamsChan, 17 days agoGood. I can use multiple accounts. But I need more stickers since I don't find any and more colors for the containers.
