It does not work. I tried a fresh firefox profile with no setting changed just this addon, ublock origin and Firefox container addon. I allowed multi container to change proxy settings but I get "Error! Could not connect to the proxy. Probably the settings are incorrect." but I've double checked my settings. I guess Firefox update probably broke something and this addon hasn't been updated in 3 years. I'm on linux mint if that matters.
