I did give them a try and I use them for a different purpose. I use profiles when I want a separate set of bookmarks, browsing history and/or addons (like a work/home separation). I use containers if I want a different set of cookies, so usually if I need to log into a single service with multiple identities. Maybe I should have mentioned that in the article but I totally forgot about the containers when writing. They are nice but I wouldn't miss them much if they were gone.
How can I force a specific website to always open in a specific container? I cannot find it.
- blckshd 9y agoWith the website open in a container, click on the Multi-account containers' icon (the 3 squares with a +) and check "Always open xxx in yyy".
- vifon 9y agoI needed to install this addon[1]. Somehow I enabled the containers on Firefox 55 or 56 previously (possibly with about:config) and I didn't have this button. Thanks!

EDIT: Yes, it was privacy.userContext.enabled in about:config.
