I've recently switched from Containerise + Temporary Containers to Auto Containers. Brand new addon, but the dev is responsive and IMO it works much better for creating new containers on the fly as you browse.

When I added it, and went to Youtube, it instantly started generating tabs in some kind of loop ... had to shut FF down to stop it, and even then had to kill the loop manually.

That's really handy! I like that it handles domains automatically

Edit: Seems to break ad blocking and there's some issues with login. Such as adding a container for YouTube requires also doing *.google.com since that's how the login is handled. Interesting and I'll keep playing around with it

  • Usually, with most browsers, you can't separate YouTube from Google in order to watch their videos. People can get around this using NewPipe and various forks, that are mostly for Android. There is also FreeTube for the desktop, that doesn't allow ads, but does connect to Google.

    • Yeah my bigger concern is that it is disrupting ublock. I want that running in all containers
