Without the extension, you can't set a domain to always open in a particular container, at least I couldn't find a UI to do so. To me, that is a very important part of using containers.
You extension also lets you sort open tabs by container but that doesn't sound very useful.
- troydavis 5y agoI experienced the same thing. Without the extension but with these flags enabled, there's no way to bind certain hostnames to certain containers. This is sort of documented in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/containers#w_what-you-can-do-with-multi-account-containers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/containers#w_what-you-c... #5. That page covers it but doesn't clearly spell out that the itemized features are only possible with the extension. As far as I can tell, the extension is called "Multi-Account Containers" while the feature is called "containers" and readers are expected to know the difference when reading that doc. (Suggestion to Firefox docs maintainers: if that's correct, change all occurrences of "Multi-Account Containers" to "Multi-Account Containers Extension")
- usr1106 5y agoOh, I had never discovered that feature... So I won't miss it yet. Need to think whether that makes it worth to use the extension again. For now I just enabled the manual configuration and have not noted any differences yet.
