Or maybe don't... I relied too much on it, and lost quite some data. Too bad it had no sync capabilities, or even basic import/export for backing up.

- zaphirplane 7y agoWhat type of data did you loose ? The addon seems to isolate cookies and storage by container
- mendelmaleh 7y agoYes... I had sessions in those containers, the cookies are the data I guess.
- philshem 7y agoCan you explain? It’s a puzzling comment about containers
- KaiserPro 7y agoThere was/is a button that allowed you to clear your default container's entire session. I almost clicked that.
- lawn 7y agoI've had problems where it loses my settings after update. They also don't sync between devices, making them quite cumbersome for me to use (you can copy the settings manually though). When it's all setup it works great though.
- johnnycab 7y ago>They also don't sync between devices I would second this, it took me a while to troubleshoot this problem. If you don't use Sync, then it might be irrelevant. I also use Tab Suspender to reduce the footprint, the 'suspended' tabs also intermittently fail to sync.

- jlnthws 7y agoMy "data loss" happened when Firefox updated itself automatically, said add-on was not compatible with latest Firefox and was disabled. After some time it became compatible again and was reenabled. All cookies in "containers" were lost. Not sure anything else was lost though. Anyway, password manager is still on a global (not per container/account), so it's easy to make mistakes and log in with "credentials A" in "container B". Or am I missing something?
