@dalias @ricci OR maybe I am confusing 2 things as the FAQ at support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/c says "Are Firefox containers and Multi-account containers the same? Firefox Containers and Multi-Account Containers are complementary features that help you keep your online activities organized. While both options allow you to separate your browsing into different container tabs, the Firefox Containers feature allows you to always open new tabs in containers."

@pmevzek @ricci Multi-Account Containers sounds sketchy (integration with their VPN partner stuff) and like it does unwanted things (automatically switching to a container context based on which site you're loading, vs locking to a context and always opening links in that container context) that harm privacy instead of preserving it.

@pmevzek @ricci Regular container tabs tho are excellent and one of the best features of Firefox.

@dalias @ricci I don't remember now why, but I had to install the extension, so anyway I live with it now. I do use the "automatically assign site X to container Y", avoids some errors, having a dozen or so containers. Anyway the logical followup would be not to have to do that and each tab/site in its own container by default, with only the possibility to "open it" to other sites/containers, but otherwise fully restricted by default.

@dalias @ricci Yes the VPN stuff is garbage/shouldn't be there, but the other part can be useful and is purely locally handled.
