A necessity in the age of surveillance capitalism. It allow me to be login into gmail or youtube in one tab and search google anonymously in another one.

easy to use!

One of main reasons Firefox is preferred over all alternatives.

I love this extension, but that the configs don't sync with my firefox account is a big problem.
Putting sites into appropriate containers is not trivial. Having to do this on every computer, or worse, losing your configs... is very discouraging.

The documentation encourages using it to manage multiple accounts on the same platform, however this usecase is not baked in. The default containers are not a bad suggestion. I used some of them. My custom containers centered around the third-party authentication and the specific account. So, I open youtube in a personal google account. I open google drive in a container for my work gsuite account.

Maybe some more guidance could be given on how to use containers. My big question is, does it make sense to separate websites that I authenticate with via twitter from websites I authenticate via facebook?

I think some built-in UX around organizing websites into containers based on specific authentication accounts could be a great feature.

Best extension for privacy ever!
It makes possible to have several identities/account on the same platform.
Also, you can containerize websites which try to connect everything you do.
I wish it was available for Android too, but I understand it would require special UI and need more computing resources.

[to all the people finding it useful but complaining of minor missing features and giving few stars: it's not nice!]

Essencial. Essa extensão auxilia muito na privacidade. Abrir cada tema num container é imprescindível para uma navegação efetivamente privativa. Recomendo.

神了，超好用

Very useful to use several accounts of the same service. Also, to reduce unsolicited tracking.

Still the best

I LOVE this extension. I work at job that has me doing a lot of stuff and being able to separate my work web life from my personal web life is AMAZING! I can be logged into two CMS systems and never have to log out because of containers. It's glorious.

The best extension for Firefox. Not is perfect, but is excellent.

The add-on works well in the background and just shows a decent notification to check the visited website is opened inside the specified container. Good idea - great implementation!

I work in the Software Security field. One of my biggest paranoias is that a rogue site will be able to access one of my protected sites, such as banks or email. In the past, I was able to mitigate this by using different profiles in Chrome, but that required separate browsers to be running. Firefox had profiles, but I couldn't open them simultaneously, which made them useless. Now with Firefox containers, I am opening my email in separate contexts from my shopping, and other contexts. I have separate containers for different roles in trusted platforms. The big win is that I can set defaults for my sites. For instance, Amazon always opens in my shopping container. Sweet.

The only reason I cannot give this five stars is because of this one criticism. Links from my email open by default in the same container as my email. This is a security shortcoming because it opens me up to phishing attacks. You can work around using the context menu and opening in a specific container, but I would rather it be a default.

Very good extension. Please ad this add-on's data to Firefox sync. I'm using Firefox on many OS and it would be greet if i had the same containers.
