- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15126386, 5 years agoI love the concept of keeping several contexts. Now I can keep the must-login-but-will-track-your-online-activity sites in their own containers, and surf the web without Google/Facebook/... following me on every click. Also makes me feel a bit safer, knowing my work and bank related website cookies cannot be abused by random sites I pass by. A missing feature however (and the only reason I'm not giving 5 stars) is that it isn't linked with bookmarks, it would be so much better if bookmarks could have a setting "open in container", that would probably also fix Tab Stash, were now all tabs are restored in default container.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 6206315, 5 years agoI've always wanted to donate to Mozilla because of how they prioritize security and data privacy. (While I still think they can do much more, they certainly provide the most features out of the box for data privacy and security.) However, it was this extension that finally pushed me to donate to Mozilla. Very happy with this extension.
I would like to know, however, if there is *any* information shared between containers, and if so, what that information is. - Rated 5 out of 5by Mcth, 5 years ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by takaouto, 5 years agoThis is a great extension now that I am working from home, I can keep logged in to the accounts I need and simply hide them when I don't want to be distracted during work.
The only reason it isn't get the full stars is because I can't seem to find a way to get the tabs to stay in their containers on restart.
Scratch that, which makes it more frustrating - only the personal container tabs that I had hidden during the day come out of their containers. If I had a personal container that I opened in the evening and therefore didn't hide since creating it --- they show up in their containers on restart perfectly fine.
So when I turn on the computer in the morning I have to spend time 'reopen in container' most of the tabs I had the day before. While dumbfoundedly looking at the random tabs that didn't get yeeted into the non-container space. - Rated 5 out of 5by Carracedo, 5 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14679682, 5 years agoSehr umständlich. Einsortieren von offenen Tabs nicht möglich. Nicht praxisgerecht und kaum brauchbar!

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16062270, 5 years agoThe Multi-Account Containers extension for Firefox is a useful addition. I typically have a couple dozen tabs open at any given time, which clutters up the tab bar and makes it difficult to find a given tab. Categorizing the tabs into containers fixes this problem, with the ability to hide and show containers of tabs.
I didn't give a five-star rating to the Multi-Account Containers extension because there are some (in my opinion) missing features and functionality which I won't go into here, but one disappointment is that containers and their tabs are not saved to the 'cloud'. When I had my tabs and containers set up how I wanted them, I switched to an OS on another partition where I had Firefox installed. When I logged into Firefox, I was expecting my tabs and containers to sync with what I had set up in the other instance of Firefox and show up in this instance. They did not.Developer response
posted 5 years agoIf your browser is set to sync add-ons and open tabs, a new Firefox install should bring over all of your add-ons, all of your containers, and all of your open tabs. If that's not working, you could file a bug here: https://github.com/mozilla/multi-account-containers/issues/new - Rated 5 out of 5by Arman Daneshjoo, 5 years agoMost necessary extension for cloud, shopping, banking, etc. Most unique firefox extension.
