- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14075487, 3 years agoVery good extension for when you have multiple Microsoft accounts. One problem: everytime I sync my containers on a new device it adds the default containers, I have to remove them one at a time.
Ideally, it would be nice to delete the defaults when I sync; at least it would be nice to have the possibility to delete multiple containers at once. - Rated 5 out of 5by indiana, 3 years agoSuper module, mais je viens de rencontrer un problème sur eBay : je ne peux plus m'identifier sur leur site, et je tourne en boucle sur le hCaptcha. Solution : ne plus mettre eBay dans aucun des containers. Dommage.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 16570908, 3 years agoI have Mozilla VPN, I enabled Mozilla VPN, it keeps telling me to Get Mozilla VPN. Kinda annoying cause I'm trying to use Mozilla VPN.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Thomas, 3 years agoThis add-on works great: I can keep an extra container for google, amazon and netflix while browsing in a different container without these companies recognizing me!
To me, it is basically a better controllable version of private browsing. - Rated 2 out of 5by Gilgamoth, 3 years agoThe January Update broke proxy within the container and whilst Feb says it should be fixed, it doesn't work for me. Had to roll back to December (8.0.4) to get it working again

- Rated 5 out of 5by BugSquanch, 3 years agoFunctions exactly as advertised. I use it as an alternative to the "tab groups" in google chrome. The containers also sync across devices(not on Android, ios I don't know) so that's pretty neat.
I also recommend "facebook containers" which use the same underlying tech to keep everything facebook in a separate sandbox - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16386255, 3 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Synetech, 3 years agoThis extension is okay but has at least two major issues:
• It's a massive pain to do things that require third-party sites, for example, if you put Google into its own container, logging into StackExchange sites using OAuth or logging into YouTube become quite the ordeal. 😕 Likewise, you can't log into YouTube unless you reassign Google to "always in" YT's container, then log in, then reassign Google back to "always in" its own container. It's a MASSIVE pain! Similarly, if you put eBay in one container and PayPal in another, you won't be able to make purchases anymore because you can't log into PayPal through eBay. 🤦
• Likewise, there's no way to use wildcards or container-ize subdomains, so you have to add them all manually. For example, you can't put ALL StackExchange sites (*.stackechange.com) in a container together, you have to manually visit each one individually, then do the multiple clicks and mouse-movements to set it to open "always in se container". And then, you have to do it ALL OVER AGAIN for each one's meta subdomain. 🤦 Not only is it a massive pain, but it also defeats the point to containers since SE can track you via all the other sites that aren't in a container, including drive-by one-off SE sites you might find yourself on where you don't even have an account. 🤦🤦🤦
• I temporarily disabled the addon to try to debug an issue with a site, and when I re-enabled it, ALL of its settings were gone, all the containers, all the assignments, everything. Worse, restoring the containers from a backup doesn't help because it already WIPED OUT ALL THE COOKIES! 😠 Apparently this has been a bug for a long time and they STILL haven't fixed it. (I guess they're too busy wasting their time integrating Mozilla VPN. 😒)
• It also doesn't seem to work for this site (addons.mozilla.org), I checked the code to see if they put an exception for it (for some reason 🤨), but it doesn't seem to contain one, it just doesn't work. (Maybe Firefox suspiciously treats this site in a different way at a base level. 🤔)
• The interface is extremely lacking. There is no way to directly edit the settings such as a text-box to enter domains to assign containers. The only way to do so is to actually go to a site and then assign it to a container. This has numerous problems:
◦ It allows a site to track you at least once before you assign it to a container.
◦ It doesn't work if you're offline.
◦ It doesn't work if the site redirects to another domain or even subdomains (eg www.), so it can harvest data and quickly redirect, passing the data and preventing you from assigning the original domain to a container. This addon NEEDS a proper UI. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13513510, 3 years ago
