by Firefox user 11842536, 7 years agoGreat addon, makes managing temp containers effortless. I especially love the way the new tab button now opens new containers, it makes it a decent replacement for private tab!
Suggestions that would make it even better:
- Random container colours.
- Custom prefix names for containers (Maybe I think TempContainer23 is a little long).
- Hotkey to override new container when I click on the "New window" option in the menu.

Option for customizing Container-Colors and -Names should be no problem, gonna implement that together with the Preferences-Feature for the Add-on.
If I understand you correctly regarding the Hotkey, you mean a Hotkey that opens a "New Window" without a Container. If that's the case, then yes, support for opening Tabs/Windows without a Container is also planned.
Edit (27. Nov 2017):
Preferences for configuring of Container-NamePrefix, -Color and -Icon is now available. Default NamePrefix changed to "tmp".
For now the only way to have "No Container"-Tabs is to deactivate the "Automatic Mode" in the Preferences.
Edit (2. Dec 2017):
There are now Keyboard Shortcuts to open "No Container" Tabs even in "Automatic Mode": Alt+N (New Tab) and Shift+Alt+C (New Window)

- Rated 5 out of 5by Tucker, 8 months agoWorks great! It'd be cool if there was a shortcut to convert temporary containers into permanent ones for when you create a new account that you want in a separate container.

- Rated 3 out of 5by eriador, 9 months agoI love this addon and have been using it for 5 years now, but recently I noticed a weird issue: when I open a few links from my bookmarks in rapid succession, the tabs get stuck and I can't switch tabs anymore or do anything else. It doesn't happen when this addon is disabled.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18433470, 9 months agoFantastic add-in that I use daily for both personal and work-related needs.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Durg, a year agoRest in peace @stoically. This is a wonderful piece of work. If any eager coders out there can lend a hand in forking this project, I and many others would greatly appreciate that. My use case is to set the isolation behaviour on middle click to "always" so you can continue browsing within a given container, while opening new tabs in new ones.

Due to "helpful" changes in firefox around the end of 2023, you may want to set `browser.link.force_default_user_context_id_for_external_opens` to true in about:config . Doing this ensures that links opened from other applications doesn't end up in some existing temporary containers.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18051002, a year agoThis is a must have and one of the main reasons I keep using Firefox.
My only concern is that is has not been updated in a while, but other than that, it works great. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14349082, a year agoVery nice extension, does exactly what it says, perfect for development.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Passerby, 2 years agoWow, what a very well made extension with great customization options!
First of all it does exactly what is says on the tin!
And second, it has a huge amount of options. Like you can even choose a random color each time a temporary container opens *and* you can exclude colors that you already use with some other container! That is awesome. - Rated 5 out of 5by Ajay (SponsorBlock), 2 years ago
