Yes — We added it last month! (Mozilla Containers dev here.) See this blog post for more info: https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2020/02/06/multi-account-c...
Sorry to bomb you like this, but I don't have the time/energy to find where to file a ff container bug: twitter.com never opens in it's designated container for me. That is the only site I always have to "Reopen in container".
Shouldn't Firefox offer a one click unsubscribe botton?
The Facebook container is great, but I wish there was an option for the built-in Multi-Account containers to work this way. I've been doing what the Facebook Container extension does, but with built-in containers, and the experience is very clunky. The two biggest issues are that I can't give the container a list of domains beforehand and say "everything under google.com should open here". I have to go to each Google…
Personally, I don't want to micromanage "containers" as a user. I truly don't understand why this is considered a nice feature. Who wants to micromanage anything? What I want is for every web page to run in its own container by default. Zero configuration. If it wants to access anything outside of its allowed domain hiearchy (like call an external API), I'd like the browser to ask for permission on its behalf. "Githu…
Sadly most sites use a lot of third party javascript, css etc so it will be a clunkier experience than you are hoping for.

What are legit uses for modifying a link on click? I've only seen that used for tracking.
The classic use is after a site redesign or migration to a new domain, due to organizational name change, or whatever. You don't want to break all of the incoming links that are out there, but you want people to get to the page they were trying to reach.

Try umatrix you could use it a little like this. Sadly most sites use a lot of third party javascript, css etc so it will be a clunkier experience than you are hoping for.

I used to be a fan of FF until chrome. I understand it's bad - but how about chromium? Btw, I'm not against looking at FF again, but looking at this changelog and recent product direction, they honestly feel lost.
How is chromium better than chrome? It's the same program, minus some blobs.

> whenever I click a link on Gmail that goes to Github, Github opens in the Google container Google intercepts clicks and redirects them through a Google Domain to track clickthru. If you're in Gmail and hover over a link it will show the actual destination but onclick your browser opens a mail.google.com URL that redirects to the destination URL.
Any way to get rid of this "Your browser is being managed by your organization" tomfoolery without nuking the relevant code in EnterprisePolicies.js[1] and rebuilding Firefox? [1]: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/compo...
Can't you ask your organization to get rid of its policies?

You can just make a shortcut to run `firefox --no-remote" --profile foo`. Poor UX, but the feature works.
Interesting. What exactly does the `--no-remote` command do? I couldn't find any real detailed info about from a quick search. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Command_Lin...
The --no-remote flag tells Firefox that no, you really want another Firefox.
