Container Addons (lemmy.ml)

I'm doing a quick review of the Addons that I am using on my Windows PC. I've had a look at some of the previous posts to try to get an idea of where things are at

Currently I have the following Container related Addons but I think things have moved on a bit since I looked at this.

This means that opening Facebook and Google automatically goes into relevant containers and using Switch I can create separate containers for Work, Banking etc.

I noticed that I'm not using Mozzilla's Multi-Account Containers

Ideally I'd like to be able to:

Have Facebook and Google Open in their own containers
Potentially open separate containers for different Google Accounts
Allocate other domains to open by default in a specific container (e.g a list of Bank websites into a specific container) but be able to override that
Have links from Thunderbird open in relevant containers

What are people using in terms of Container addons?

I'm just using Mozilla's Multi-Account Containers extension. In my work's infinite wisdom I have a total of five "single sign on" accounts. So I have different containers for each account so I avoid the endless "which account would you like to use" and "this account doesn't have access to this resource".

The extension allows me to set specific domains to always open in container X. That covers 90℅ of my use cases. Some sites I need to use different accounts with and for that I have to select which one to use each time.

Ok that sounds like a vote for Adding Multi-Account Containers - to allow me to configure specific domains to a Particlular container -I like that.
