What does HackerNews think of containerise?

Firefox extension to automatically open websites in a container

Language: JavaScript

#21 in Firefox

The containerise extension has pulled in most of the features of temporary containers and is still semi actively maintained.

One more extension related to container management - https://github.com/kintesh/containerise

This lets you set regex/wildcard to contain subdomain or redirect happy sites into a single container

I use Containerise[0] (not affiliated) exactly for that purpose but I agree, this should really be included in the official plugin.

Thank you for your suggestions. I've been considering what to do about my Firefox setup for some time (switching to ESR vs one of the forks, which I have to research first). Thing is, I'm using a heavily-customized profile with lots of extensions, Violentmonkey [1] userscripts, containers (including Containerise [2], and Temporary Containers [3]), and a custom user.js (based on [4]), so I should also revisit the settings for all of these at the same time as it's been a while since I last did so. It's all on my to-do list but as the current setup works well, there's always something more urgent to do instead.

The LTSC suggestion is also good. I'm already using a heavily-debloated LTSC with lots of unnecessary packages removed (including the hidden ones, which are not supposed to be officially removable), and all kinds of customizations for privacy, security, performance, and convenience. While I'm satisfied with my setup (automated with custom scripts I've been maintaining since Windows 8), the number of hoops one has to go through to have their computer do what the user wants and nothing else, or a "User-Agent" that gives actual agency to the user these days is truly astonishing, and makes the goal unattainable for most people.
