• Firefox offers better privacy and security than Chrome, with upcoming support for 200 new add-ons. • While Chrome dominates, Firefox gains ground with user-friendly browsing experience and open-source model. • Mozilla's focus on user privacy and transparency challenges Google's ad-centric approach, making Firefox a viable alternative.

Container tabs are hands down the best add-on I have ever used. Being able to use multiple accounts across tabs is fantastic. Alot of my colleagues have switched due to this alone

They are fantastic! Way better than having 6 seperate "browser profiles" open. 🙄

I have this extension and I always thought it's duty was to contain Amazon services from interacting with my other sites i.e., stop Amazon trackers. Can you explain to me more how to use container tabs?

Earlier, I tried Google Chrome's "profiles" but damn, how inconvenient they are. I ended up opening multiple windows.

Firefox, on the other hand, only uses a single window for multiple tab containers and accounts.

That's one reason I like Librewolf so much, it has containers by default

I use Facebook Container which isolates any webpage that connects with facebook from the rest of my tabs. It also has separate containers for things like work, shopping, etc you can optionally use for whatever.

It's very convenient to just open a "shopping" container tab to check my spam email address instead of opening a private window and needing to sign in each time.
