Firefox Multi-Account Containers by Firefox
Review by aba
Rated 2 out of 5
by aba, a year 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.

- I find the app excellent and effective, but I would also like to signal that, when synching from a different Firefox browser operating in another language, the basic containers like work and bank were duplicated for the two languages, and that should be fixed. Keep up the good work!

- Rated 5 out of 5by kr33pt0, 25 days agoAnother MUST HAVE extension for me. I don't want websites checking every other website I ever visited. So I gave them all a container to live in.
This is less important now that FireFox offers Cookie Isolation in Privacy settings, but it's still useful as it allows me to have multiple different accounts logged in for the same website at the same time. - Rated 1 out of 5by Undefined_ID, a month agoeach new device integrated in Firefox Sync BROKES EVERY CONTAINER PARAMETERS I HAD!! This plug-in is crap!!!
