If you have rule that gmail should open in the red container, then it will always create a new tab if you try to open gmail from a non-container. This the correct behavior. Otherwise, cookies/browser data would have to be invisibly switched as the user goes back and forth in history. Invisible switching is bad design.
- seba_dos1 2y agoAs it is right now, if you go to a containerized URL using the adddress bar you may end up losing the tab's history completely when it gets switched between containers, without warning. You can't even get the tab back with Ctrl+Shift+T cause it instantly switches to the new container as well. That's much worse design. At least that's the behavior you get with Google Container and (Mozilla's own!) Facebook Container extensions. Twitter Container gets it right. Having it centralized could remove plenty of potential failure points. I just accidentally clicked at a YouTube link from a comment on this very page and couldn't get back!
- abdullahkhalids 2y agoYou should get the generic Firefox Multi-Account Container extension [1] instead of individual ones. It has a setting to either replace or open a new tab, when clicking a link.
