the only way to rearrange Containers is to edit "containers.json" when I click on Firefox Multi-Account Containers Extension button and then click on Manage Containers, it shows an option to arrange the containers but that arrangement only shows when you click on the extension button. if you right click the NewTab button (+) the container is listed as before. I suggest when the user modify the order of Containers that it would also reflect everywhere in firefox and most importantly on the New Tab button.   Also, to add separates (like in Firefox bookmark folders) to add dividers between different Container Group. Lastly, not for me, but many suggested this, which is to add a way to rearrange the Containers alphabetically. ... View more

The container grows, and I saw a realtor having more than 40 containers because each client have their account. I don't have that much but the longer I work/study/family bother me with technical help. I had the need to create more Containers. I suggest, to be able to create folders to Organize containers and assign different color to each folder (not a limited set of colors) Also to add Separators like how you can in Firefox's bookmark pages. it is a nice feature. ...

Right now the only way to search multi-Account Containers is to click on the extension button (there is a search bar: now this is great but I rarely use it because I open containers by right-clicking the + button in the tab bar and then click on the container I want, having search in that list would be great for users with lots of containers, which tends to grow when your whole family treat you as their IT slave (I am not that techie)   thank you Firefox Team, specially for this amazing feature     ...

A long time ago, I discovered that when I signed-in to a website in a Private Window, I would remain signed in to that same website in a different Private Window. I realized that all private tabs belong to one Container. Perhaps there should be a container for each Private Window. After all, there is a certain logic built into windows so that you can separate your different tabs and browsing activity in different windows. It therefore makes sense that if you access the same website from different Private Windows, it would be for different reasons and different use-cases, and we wouldn't have the same need, therefore the website shouldn't have to access the data it already has stored on Firefox. And while this rationale doesn't make it necessarily more preferable than the status quo, there would also be a Privacy benefit from making this change: it would strengthen Firefox's powerful container abilities, by isolating websites and their data, separating more privacy-invading websites from others, while still keeping the features and functions of Private browsing for all those tabs. ...

What made Firefox successful in the past? It was simply fast, adaptable and user friendly. Then Chrome came and did exactly the same. But now its faster, and has very similar Addons at least. It sucks, but people dont seem to care about privacy? Is that too short? What if they care about privacy, why should they use Firefox? Firefox is not a privacy out of the box browser. Its a flawed concept. Everything a product stands for, has to be actually enabled by default!   I use Arkenfox, and I used Librewolf before. But Librewolf is slower than Arkenfox with native Fedora Firefox, so I chose the extremely manual way. But even for me that is work. On other installs I simply set some GUI settings and thats it. No RFP, no webgl, useragent or canvas randomization...   Firefox is not a privacy browser, even though its easy to make it one. Privacy is literally the only reason why people would use it!   Firefoxes userbase is big enough. I dont even know how to donate to the Browser, I already did to the other Mozilla and in the end didnt care anymore. If every Firefox user donates like 1€/month, its enough to get rid of the shady search engine deals.   Those Search engines and useless presets make Firefox a useless browser. For normies that dont know its the only private browser once configured, will simply use Brave. Having Google by default makes it useless, Chrome is the Google Browser. Firefox needs to take this step: get rid of all the crap that makes the internet the place it is. Ads are flawed. Invasive search engines should be removed. Having no vision for this gives people no reason to use Firefox. A privacy browser does not include Google out of the box.   Why not? Block Ads by default Be very secure by default Use containers by default Simply integrate Arkenfox as an out of the Box setting. Have a "secure mode" toggle that enables this   Arkenfox is usable for daily life! Really! And even with Noscript it is. The only thing stopping Firefox from doing this out of the box is the shady Ad deals. If they dont rely on those companies, why not just block all Ads?   Why develop "privacy preserving Ads" techniques, and not just a way to donate to websites you often visit? With crypto, or anything else. Maybe have a database and donate bigger amounts to fewer sites to reduce transactions. Everything anonymized.   Firefox is a great Toolbox. But as nobody uses a browser like that, its current state is useless for people. Without out of the box privacy and real innovations, it has nothing to offer compared to Chrome or Edge. ...

Multi-Account-Containers has the ability to "Always Open This Site In..." and lets you select a container. However, I use the default "no container" for almost everything and only use containers for certain tasks. I would love for certain sites to always open in the "no container", but there is currently no way. Other container features allow selecting the "no container" container. At best if I am in a container, I can open a new tab, go to the site, and then "Open in New Container Tab: no container" ... but at this point I've already opened the tab in the old container. The only other solution is to switch back to the default non-container and swap tabs a few times to make sure the "current container" sticks when opening a new tab. ... View more

I'm interested in segregating a particular section of a website to load in separate containers. Here's the scenario: I'm currently logged into my YouTube account within a specific container that holds all my Google accounts. I want all URLs that match youtube.com/watch=* to open in a container named "YARR!" This container won't be logged into my Google account. This setup would enable me to access my subscribed channels while prevent Google's data collection on my views. Additionally, it helps prevent my account from encountering adblock restrictions. ...

The Multi-Account Containers extension is a very useful addon as it prevents websites from accessing all your browsing data by limiting it inside containers. I love this so much as it enhances the privacy. For example, I keep all meta related websites like facebook, instagram in a seperate container. So the only data they can access is between their own websites and not the rest of my browsing habits. TLDR: Please bring this extension for Android!   ... View more

This feature would be useful for websites like Amazon Prime that prevent a user to watch video while using a VPN. We could create a container in which the VPN is disabled while still being protected anywhere else. ... View more

I mean, I'm not sure why it's not built-in by default! I was looking for a way to always open a certain bookmark/URL in a certain container (makes sense right?) and only then realised you need the extra add-on (by Mozilla 😃) to make full use of container tabs. Please integrate the functionality so we can take full advantage of such a great feature! Link for everyone else: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/multi-account-containers/     ...

TB 115.4.1 (64-bit) SUPERNOVA - Mac Ventura 13.5.2 When you use the "Next Unread" button, the correct message appears on the right side section. However, the containing folder, say, an Inbox (left sidebar) can often be not displayed and you end up having to take the time to scroll the sidebar folder to find out which folder the message is in. The other thing you could do is to show the "name" of the containing folder just near the right side message display (I think it used to display there before the new version was released).   ...

Tab groups and sync extensions has already been suggested but yet to be implemented. With Firefox it is possible to send (copies of) Tabs to other device as well as open up (a new copy) of tabs from other devices with the Synced Tabs feature. Using these are tedious and gets arduous. Plus now you have the same website(S) open on different devices and will show up in the "Synced Tabs" as separate tabs making the Sync Tabs list bulky and inefficiently redundant. I work in one window, multiple tabs, (its easy to loose tabs when working in multiple windows). I want when I close a tab on one device, it closes on all my devices. Open, change URL, etc. While this may not be good for classic browsing on multiple devices, using separate spaces/groups that sync together turns multiple devices into a single seamless continuity. tab groups are organized by user preference and not device and by Syncing tab groups it will feel like working on a single device instead of multiple devices. Closing a tab in a group will mean that the tab is closed on all devices, etc. Separate devices can have different active groups. Extensions exist that can group tabs, backup, and restore, but they cannot be synced live which is something I believe Firefox can and should implement themselves if they are not willing to sync all extension settings/data.   ...

I've really come to appreciate the container feature, but they're still completely manual. I'd suggest to add a feature to bookmarks and bookmark handling, so that I can specify in a bookmark, in which container it will open. The idea is to have e.g. one bookmark "Google/Docs/YT (work) to open in my "work" container with my work login, and another one to open in a standard container with a different or no login. Currently, this works just fine, but I have to open the container tab manually each time. (This could be a more flexible addition to pre-assigning e.g. all *facebook.com domains to one container as @bugboy  suggested.) ... View more

Currently you can reopen a tab or open a link in an existing container but you can't create a new container in that flow. You have to stop what you were doing, create a new container, then return and open the tab/link in your newly created container. This is similar to the temporary container mechanics discussed elsewhere. It would be nice to be able to choose a temporary container or to create a new, persisted container. ... View more

Hello. Right now, Firefox supports various sidebars like the Bookmark sidebar, History sidebar, etc. I think it would be incredibly convenient to add a Containers sidebar as well. Just like the Bookmarks sidebar, you can bring it up with a keyboard shortcut, it allows you to view, manage, rearrange, edit, delete, etc. your containers, and it allows you to transfer the current tab to a container. Basically it's like the Firefox Multi-Account Containers floating panel that shows up when you click on the containers button on the toolbar, but permanently pinned to the side of the browser. ...

When using Multi Accounts Containers extension, if you click the home button instead of opening a new tab, the container used for the page that was currently open does not change. For example if I have a bank website that is configured to open in banking container, if I click the home button it will go go the default home page but the banking container will not change to none. If you open a new tab with the default home page, it will have no container assigned by default. It would be nice to have the same functionality when you click the home button. ... View more
