I'm a big fan of multi-account containers.. or at least, was. Recently I inadvertantly added a domain to one of the ascribed containers on my laptop and I'll be damned if I can work out how to undo it, other than uninstalling and starting over, which'll be a pain, because I've customised it quite a bit. ...This is a plea for help, by the way, in case it wasn't obvious :) I'm sure there must be a json file or something, somewhere, I can just edit.

When visiting the domain, open the container menu by clicking the icon and uncheck "always open in this container".

  Yeah, that's the most immediate thing to try, but unfortunately, that doesn't work for some reason.

I do not know how to directly manipulate the container, but I think what you can do is, that you open a new tab of another container and copy paste the URL there. Then you can set it to always open the domain in that container, effectively changing the container. Not sure how to remove a domain from all containers though.

Multi-Accounts Container Version: 8.0.7 You can click on "Manage Containers", choose a container and then remove the site with "Manage Site List".

  Oh Gosh, I feel so stupid - that's exactly what I was looking for.. please tell me they just added that this morning? I know they didn't..!

    There is no reason to feel stupid. Browser containers are tricky and relatively new, and I was bitten by some quirks, too. Nevertheless, they're definitely worth it.

      It also indicates the need for better UX design, which for a relatively new features isn't surprising

    Not stupid, I also accidentally added something to the wrong container and it took me a while and some searching to find the answer. The feature is great, but the UX is still a little lacking.

    The 'Manage Site List' feature is relatively new, it wasn't there in earlier versions. Also, the UI is... not great. For example you cannot add new urls here. Some websites forward you to some other external url through another domain for example. there is no way to add these custom domains. So annoying. There yet another extension to solve that problem, but... it doesn't support Firefox 'sync'.

because I've customised it quite a bit Can this not (at least partly) solved by copying over the correct files in combination with settings sync?
