Temporary Containers is a fundamental privacy enhancement for Firefox, automatically isolating your browsing activity to minimize tracking.

- Automatic Isolation: Opens websites, tabs, or clicks in new, disposable containers by default.
- Reduces Tracking: Significantly limits cross-site tracking by preventing cookies and site data from following you across different websites or sessions.
- Effortless Cleanup: Once the last tab in a temporary container is closed, the container and all its stored data (cookies, local storage) are automatically deleted, leaving minimal trace.
- Simple & Automatic: Installs and works seamlessly in the background. Excellent privacy protection right away with smart defaults, yet offers configuration for specific needs.
- Trustworthy & Open Source: Free, open-source, and dedicated to enhancing user privacy without compromises.

That's it! Keep it enabled for a significantly more private browsing experience. Temporary Containers provides a powerful layer of compartmentalization with virtually no user effort required. A huge thank you to the developer(s) for creating and maintaining this essential privacy tool. Highly recommend.

works very well when i have auto fill info or when i just want to have history without persistent cookies

Works great! It'd be cool if there was a shortcut to convert temporary containers into permanent ones for when you create a new account that you want in a separate container.

Fantastic add-in that I use daily for both personal and work-related needs.

One of the best privacy addons I've installed in the last years

Rest in peace @stoically. This is a wonderful piece of work. If any eager coders out there can lend a hand in forking this project, I and many others would greatly appreciate that. My use case is to set the isolation behaviour on middle click to "always" so you can continue browsing within a given container, while opening new tabs in new ones.

Works great.

Due to "helpful" changes in firefox around the end of 2023, you may want to set `browser.link.force_default_user_context_id_for_external_opens` to true in about:config . Doing this ensures that links opened from other applications doesn't end up in some existing temporary containers. Details here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1874599 .

This is a must have and one of the main reasons I keep using Firefox.
My only concern is that is has not been updated in a while, but other than that, it works great.

Very nice extension, does exactly what it says, perfect for development.

Wow, what a very well made extension with great customization options!

First of all it does exactly what is says on the tin!

And second, it has a huge amount of options. Like you can even choose a random color each time a temporary container opens *and* you can exclude colors that you already use with some other container! That is awesome.
