Works perfectly well. I use it together with the 'Temporary Containers' extension when I wish to keep a dedicated container, and it runs better in my experience than the 'Firefox Multi-Account Containers' extension. Nice work. Recommended.

Finally, a way to open google.com/maps on a separate container to google.com. The only thing missing is for the setting to be synced via firefox sync.

Adds an essential feature to container tabs: The ability to always open sites in a specific container tab based on relative paths! Like for Azure devops, I use: @dev\.azure\.com/client1/.* @dev\.azure\.com/client2/.* Really great for contractors who frequently switch between numerous accounts. Yeah, super great! 5 stars for the great functionality, though probably only 4 stars total due to overall polish/ease-of-use and lack of approving bugfix PRs! There's also only 1 example provided for their regex flavor. (It's a little odd, but simpler. Forward slashes are fine, and you don't have to worry about text before the domain. Maybe I'll get around to making a PR with more examples soon. Edit: Never mind on that! It seems the dev may have forgotten about this. There are several open PRs (some years old) with fixes and feature enhancements just waiting to be reviewed and merged.
