Mozilla names new CEO as it pivots to data privacy
It is an extension for Firefox, but one created by Mozilla. It's official in that sense, but it does seem a little strange it's not included by default.

Ask HN: Why does Firefox have such a low market share anyways?
the opposite is true, too, since "Clear History" in Chrome Profiles behaves correctly and (AFAIK) is scoped just to that Profile unlike our container friend: https://github.com/mozilla/multi-account-containers/issues/3...
I still use them because combined with https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-url-in-c... ( https://github.com/honsiorovskyi/open-url-in-container ) is a game changer for my workflow but it does make me sad that issue has been open for so long

Problems with Firefox Container is draining my CPU at 100%.
I have about 35 tabs open, some are work tabs, some are personal tabs and others are social tabs. About 1 week ago I started having the problem that while I have the Open Containers completely draining, my CPU is at 100%. While when I close them all my CPU returns to its normal state of use 20% I see that the problem is existing. https://github.com/mozilla/multi-account-containers/issues/572 any help? I have the latest version of Firefox on Windows 10

Containers are all gone
I've been googling around for a way to recover them and it seems like this is just... a thing hat happens? And it has for years? This is intentional? What the hell?

Just switched to Firefox what extensions should I get ?
Firefox Containers - Only if you need to use two accounts from the same website at the same time. You can change groups names and colors. When you need to open another account simultaneously just right-click the tab -> open in new conteiner -> choose one and voilá. It took me time to understand how exactly this worked but I use a lot now. Ohh and never ever never set "Aways open this tab/site in this container" this got me nuts these days. Is hard to revert if you don't really need a certain website aways on a certain container.

Is there a way to keep my YT videos and YT Music playlists separate?
Notice that not all functionality is available in brand accounts, e.g., upload your own music to YTM. There might also be some lost functionality when using the brand account at YT, but I don't know them anymore. You should also be aware that it is not easy to switch between different google accounts on PC because they use the same cookie to remember your current account. You can use a different browser for one of YT or YTM, or use add-ons like Firefox Multi-Account Containers. The different apps on android have no problem with this.

Mozilla is bringing popular privacy features to its desktop and mobile VPN
I use Containerise[0] (not affiliated) exactly for that purpose but I agree, this should really be included in the official plugin.

Firefox 96
Thank you for your suggestions. I've been considering what to do about my Firefox setup for some time (switching to ESR vs one of the forks, which I have to research first). Thing is, I'm using a heavily-customized profile with lots of extensions, Violentmonkey [1] userscripts, containers (including Containerise [2], and Temporary Containers [3]), and a custom user.js (based on [4]), so I should also revisit the settings for all of these at the same time as it's been a while since I last did so. It's all on my to-do list but as the current setup works well, there's always something more urgent to do instead.

2. https://github.com/kintesh/containerise
3. https://github.com/stoically/temporary-containers
4. https://github.com/pyllyukko/user.js
The LTSC suggestion is also good. I'm already using a heavily-debloated LTSC with lots of unnecessary packages removed (including the hidden ones, which are not supposed to be officially removable), and all kinds of customizations for privacy, security, performance, and convenience. While I'm satisfied with my setup (automated with custom scripts I've been maintaining since Windows 8), the number of hoops one has to go through to have their computer do what the user wants and nothing else, or a "User-Agent" that gives actual agency to the user these days is truly astonishing, and makes the goal unattainable for most people.

Container in Firefox
If you've found something you believe is broken, post on their issue tracker...
- I think it's a good idea if in "Firefox Multi-Account Containers" we could enter the URL's manually. Making the Google container was a bit hard, some URLs directed automatically, and sometimes I had to disconnect the Internet, so that I could put the URL on the list.

Firefox containers question.
I think Containerise will do what you want. To use it in the way you describe, don't set up manual rules, but set the Default Container under the addon options using the {domain} or {fqdn} placeholders. Then a new container is created with a name based on the domain, and all other visits to the same domain share that container.
