It says a lot that there's a new feature bullet for Facebook alone. I wonder if at some point Firefox is going to be so effective at hampering FB's goals that FB decides it needs to be crushed

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…
I wish every domain could automatically be opened in an individual container. I don't even need to know about them.
I use this in combination with "normal" containers and it works a treat

> whenever I click a link on Gmail that goes to Github, Github opens in the Google container and I always have to copy/paste the address to a new tab. You can right-click links and open them in a "New Container Tab" (including "No Container"). Edit: You can also right-click on the tabs and select "Reopen in Container"
Sure, but it's not as convenient as doing it automatically.

I feel like that's probably by design. If you were in a session and clicking links, the assumption is if you're in the container already, you'd want to remain in the container. I don't disagree it would be nice for you to be able to specify domains per containers, but yeah, maybe that'll come in the future..

That would break a lot of stuff, though. And then I don't just mean "bad" tracking, but normal auth flows etc
I wouldn't recommend it for family or friends, but I'm happy with the trade off
Eagerly awaiting a Firefox release that improves power consumption on Mac to a point where it is at least close to competitive with Safari. That, plus the rumors that iOS will soon allow 3rd party default browsers and I'm all in Firefox for sure.

With the base multi account container extension https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/multi-account... you can right click in any page and have it remember the container for that domain. For example you open abc.com in container "Personal" once, then you can tell it do remember to use that container whenever you go to abc.com. The Conex extension https://github.com/kesselborn/conex goes beyond by (optionally…
> you can tell it do remember to use that container whenever you go to abc.com My problem with that is that, even if I do this, it doesn't remember it for foo.abc.com, and when I'm in the container, links to def.com won't open outside the container.
