- Rated 1 out of 5by Franz Schneider, 6 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 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13806323, 6 years agoPlease redesign and remove submenus in this extention. It should be easy to switch between containers. Show or Hide container should be near Kategory not in submenu.
Hide last container should not close firefox entirely. Instead open an new tab. When I close the tab it should not be deleted from container. When I switch container other containers should close. It is not user friendly like it is now. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 11921138, 6 years agoNutzlos! Das ist nicht mehr als Lesezeichen auch bieten.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13793223, 6 years agoContainers Add-On won't allow me to set up my work G Mail account. It keeps kicking me back to my personal account. Ridiculous and frustrating.
- Rated 1 out of 5by kingsword, 6 years agoThis is not a replacement for Tab Groups as Firefox suggests, this is archaic and can't do a tenth of it feature-wise.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Georgie Lynn, 6 years agoSometimes the scripts of certain pages that are contained in one container are used in the pages of another container making some kind of Cross-Sripting and blocking pages such as Wikia.com and many others. Basically it's because most of sites are interrelated.
As well that when a link is opened from inside a contained page that link is contained either and not independently from that domain containing.
And now it just logs out my accounts that were not in a container and later I tried to log in to them in the default container instead, and actually can´t mark to open them always in the default container. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13523946, 6 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13492180, 6 years agoWhile the add-on mostly works okay it causes some strange problems. On sites such as pinterest, if I click on a link to open in the same tab, it works fine. If I middle or right-click to open the link in a new tab, the first image or header displays, but the rest of the page is blank with a spinning wheel icon at the bottom, as if it's loading more (which it's not, there is no loading indicator on the tab itself). It does this for every link on every page of pinterest.
With this extension disabled, I get the normal expected behavior: the page is complete on both same and new tabs. I'm only using pinterest as an example, because I know the general layout of the images there. I know when I'm not seeing most of the page. Since I don't know this for most other sites, I don't know what other information on not seeing on those sites when using new tabs with this extension.
Until I know I can open in a new tab without losing information, I won't be using this add-on. - Rated 1 out of 5by Cory Sanin, 6 years agoIt worked great until all my add-ons got disabled. Because that got rid of all my profiles for this add-on.
