Containers now available in Firefox 153

[alanmbyrne]

I'm excited to announce that as of Firefox version 153, Containers are now built into the browser. More information can be found in this blog post.
In this preview release, you can:Open tabs in specifications containers:

• Keep your browsing activity isolated by context.
• Customize your workspace: Create and manage containers with your own names, colors, and icons.
• Manage settings easily: Control your container setup directly from the Firefox settings surface.
• Get Started: Right-click any tab or long-press the new tab (+) button to open a container tab — or head to Firefox Settings to create your first container.
  
  If you’re already using the Multi-Account Containers, there’s nothing special you need to do. Not all of the features of the add-on are available in the first-party version of containers just yet, we’re still building them out.  You can continue to use the add-on alongside the built in containers, no need to uninstall the add-on.
  
  This is the first step, and we plan on continuing the work on making this better. To help us ensure we're building the right thing, we would love to hear your feedback about this initial release below. Please let us know how you use containers, what they help you with, so that we can figure out what we should prioritize next!

For my workflow, it would be ideal if a window could be configured with a default container, such that opening a new tab here using a keyboard shortcut would have this configured container assigned.

I know that browser profiles is a way I can get that behavior, but that has its own issues.

I'd like to know how it relates to the cookie isolation feature that we have now. I mean the "isolate cross-site cookies" setting. Will it work together, or will the isolation become obsolete?

Long time user of Multi account containers here. This is a killer Firefox feature for me as a developer. Testing IAM flows, doing demos where I'm playing multiple users interacting, keeping different sessions open so I can juggle my multiple codex subs, all valuable use cases. I find trying to do the equivalent on Chrome enormously frustrating.

Colleagues have to do demos with one edge window, one chrome window, one incognito window - agony!

I think profiles, the already-existing feature would allow that, for you and your colleagues, both in Firefox and in Chrome.

Yeah if I wanted to have to deal with lots of windows. Having per tab containers is super nice, more than one browser window per screen and I'm instantly lost trying to remember which window has which tab.

You'll get equally lost with containers then.
