I add Containerize to that:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/containerise

It lets you define rules for URLs to allow any URL matching a pattern to always open in a certain container.

How is this different than managing the site list for a Firefox Container? Just that it's a CSV and patterns are supported?

Do you just not define anything in the Firefox Container site list, and rely on this to manage it instead?

The main Firefox Containers extension has a nicer UI but quite a lot of missing features. Mainly the ability to edit the site list directly, and the fact that the way it registers a site against a container means it can't support adding a redirect to a container, nor (related) having separate Google services in separate containers (e.g. a Youtube container and separate Gmail container).

For me a source of some frustration is redirects and subdomains, which I need to visit manually with network switched off in order to add to the right container. This will help a lot for that issue!

I tried using this but it doesn't preserve case so the regex matches don't work..

Doesn't seem to be very active either

I eventually moved to one of the fields that fixes the issue but have to install that from xpi
