Open Irvinehimself opened 2 years ago
Okay, I found a workaround of sorts: Install the add-on Skip Redirect It's a bit buggy, but "usually" works if the target site has a rule to always open in a particular container.
If not, then, with the Skip Redirect
add-on, the target site opens without a container, which is better than remaining in the original container I suppose, but still?
Additionally,every now and again, the whole workaround just breaks and I have to reboot Firefox
Update on work around
The add-on ClearUrls is a better solution:
no-container
.@Irvinehimself are you any closer to figuring out what breaks?
(I would advocate that URL rewriting is outside the scope of this plug-in; if you don't like how search engines and webmail services give you "tracker" links to find out how you interact with their services, then fixing that is a job for a different plug-in. But ensuring that both plug-ins work together is of course important here.)
Is the ClearUrls solution sufficiently robust that this ticket can be closed?
Could this potentially be related to (or the same as) the following issue? support.mozilla.org opens in the wrong container

The whole point in having
Containers
is to preventSite-A
from snooping on what you do inSite B
. While Google and GitHub are unlikely to have malicious intent, it demonstrate how a malicious site could, use this to override a userscontainer
preferences. Thus, potentially gathering sensitive information.Provide a copy of Troubleshooting Information page
